Hiya

We arrive back on the Gold Coast on Australia day [2nd time around]. There's myself and partner Wayne and our three boys [18, 17, 15]. We fly in early morning, so might drop off our bags and make our way down to say hi. The idea is for us all to try and stay awake till early eve

Hello all,

Sorry but we probably will not make it on 26th. That's the day that our flight arrives at Brisbane. HOWEVER, we will definitely be at any other meets that are arranged, can't wait!

Hope you all have a lovely day, it will be a big day for us too.

Love,
Ren xx

We are hoping to fly to Australia on 22nd Jan. We shipped our stuff before the visa application went in. The visa was applied for last night (457) and I think we will be booking our flights tomorrow (yes, before the visa is issued).

I know we have done this all arse about face but I am so DESPERATE to just get there after a rocky road to get this far.

So, fingers crossed, see you on Australia day
Arse about face works for me ... it makes life far more interesting than following the normal routes !!

And it shows optimism and a positive attitude - well, that's my excuse anyway

Hiya

We've been here a year and not yet made it to any of the previous meets - OH always working !

What is the vague plan ? turn up around 11am, bring a picnic (and assorted liquid refreshment presumably ?) ... and ...

I saw a post which said something about "lots for the kids to do" - can you give us some idea of what - sorry, don't mean to sound too organised, but I know how bored my 14year old is without some form of electronics around him

Thanks all
