Default Emigrating to Adelaide

My wife and I are seriously considering emergrating to Adelaide.
we both have good jobs in the uk, have a 3 month baby and are fed up with uk life.

We both gym,scuba,run,beer,barbie,wine,party,sun,travel.

I am Sales Manager in vehicle leasing, my wife a Sales/Partnership Manager in mobile telecoms.

Any advice from anyone living in Adelaide would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Doug & Andrea.

Thanks Bordy,

All people I know said we should move to Melbourne. Unfortunatly the visa conditions now do not allow it. We have to live in SA.

Seriously though I believe Adelaide is a beautiful city, good luck to you both.

Thanks Bleugh,

How long have they said it will take? I fancy moving out Sept 2005.
