did i leave everything too late??!!!
Hi Guys. Myself and my husband and 4 young boys(oldest 7 years ,youngest 1) are moving to oz in 8 days. You wont believe how little we have organised! We in listed the help of a relocator to help pick a suburb with great schools... in Melbourne ...we chose Bayside..hopefully Beaumaris. I am organising the removers at the moment but I cant concentrate...my kids are here running around like mad things!! I much prefer to read this forum than do any real decision making!!! We have short term accommodation for 3 weeks and after that we are on our own!!!I am scared s***less!! I hate all the boring organising much prefer to think about trivial things like what cars we should get!!!I was gust reading the thread about 4wds. We need a 7 seat car/4wd. Here we have a Toyota Avensis Verso which we find great but we would love to get a 4wd in oz. I am looking at the Pathfinder does anyone have any suggestions advice??
Thanks

COME ON NOW - - - both of us need to get off our arses and get stuck in.
If your anything like me you are putting it off coz you don't know where to start. Just plod on - -one room at a time.
Good luck and forget about the bl**dy cars for now(my hubby has discovered the Oz auto-trader :scared: )

Don't get so worried. It may be "chilly" but the sun is bright and it feels like a summers day (without the heat - hope you know what i mean).
