G'day!settling/settled In Sunshine Coast Area?
HI THERE,
My partner Kerrie and myself, Jamie have just been granted permanent residency visas for Australia and intend, all being well, to migrate to the Sunshine coast area in August 2007 (after my bro's wedding). It is also our intention to go over again for another short holiday during my shut-down week at the end of May 2007, for another "look" to re-fresh our memories, as we think this would be sensible.
We feel it is very important that we now speak/contact as many people as possible who are in the same situation/recently migrated and settled in the Sunshine Coast/Brisbane areas.
Anyway, i'm Jamie, I am 33years old, and we applied on me as I’m a metal machinist/engineer and my partner, Kerrie, who is 28 years old is a qualified hair dresser, but currently working in retail. It only took approx 9months to be granted our independent permanent visa.
We live in Rugby in the West Midlands, about 10miles from Coventry and we would like to settle in the Maroochydore /Mooloolabah/ Caloundra/ Buderim area, but not yet decided!
So if all this sounds relevant, please get in [email protected]
Regards, Jamie & Kerrie

I am a hairdresser, but a work in retail finance as it is better money than hairdressing & I enjoy it more.
I would be looking to work in an office, sales or retail & maybe hairdressing.
Is that work hard to come by when we get there? as I have heard that getting a job takes longer that in the uk, the process in oz is much slower is this true?
We visited the gold coast 2 years ago it is a lovely place, how long have have you lived there?
Hope to hear from you again soon
kind regards Kerrie & Jamie.
