Bought something a bit bigger?
Well after nearly 3 years in sunny fabby OZ land we have finally chucked all caution to the wind and purchased a 5 acre block, and to top it off are going owner builders!
My poor head is thinking caravan and bottled water, and well a port-a-loo. The great outdoors may not be so appealing after 6 months shacked up in a caravan with the teenager from hell when he realises there is no broadband and the dogs!
We figured that unless we go for it how else will we know if its really us. I am however dreaming of chirping birds and the roo's bouncing through every now and then, the stars at night, even though they are so much better here than the UK, not as much light pollution you see, and the vast open spaces, oh and not to forget petrol than never dips below quarter empty and a huge fridge because the shops well aren't exactly close!
Will keep all informed by dial up (how horrid) and give you all an idea of how our progress is shaping up.
Having planning fun
Jenny and Steve

lol - you're certainly brave guys - I'll give you that. At least it sounds like you've got a bit of space for your teenager to strop off into.

Re: Bought something a bit bigger?
Exactly what we've been eyeing up too - where abouts in WA ?
We looked at some in Bullsbrook tother day as well as Araluan ones here.
I can't wait to be honest - although 3 kids and no broadband - hmm may need 2 caravans - one for us one for them
