Got the " 4 days to go jitters"
Uh-oh,must be getting in touch with my feminine side.The old bottom lip keeps quivering-should stop reading messages from friends and family-why don't they tell you this stuff when you're alive ?Jesus,I reckon Wayne sleep could beat me up at the mo !
Not eating or sleeping much-perhaps I should stop staying sober.
Putting photos in with BB jnr's thankyou cards-wow,he's got some great friends who'll miss him.
Would appreciate comments from those who've had these feelings-with so many good friends and family here,why should you up and leave 'em all ?
BB-must kick buttsniffer round the garden-that'll sort me out.

Hi Baldbutts
uh-oh! know exactly what you mean, only 27 days left for us, are these feelings starting too early!!!!! started blubbing already when I realise I won't see some friends again, everyone is being so nice!!!!!! maybe they want us to go!!!!! Good friends are looking forward to their holiday in Oz,
My parents have decided not to come to the airport to see us off, which is good as I would rather it was just us, don't want all those tears!!!!!!
Looks like we will exchange contracts before we go, looking forward to a fresh start.
Hope everything goes ok for you, good luck
Dave Yve

Swap?!
Hi there - The jitters must be natural! I have only been lucky enough to get over to Oz/NZ for a year and I remember the butterflies for that! But now I would swap places with you any day! We are desperate to get back over and exhausting every avenue at the moment!
Good luck and just remember how many envious people there are out there!

Hey BB,
Kinda gettin a bit jealous here. All you guys are suddenly jetting off and all we can manage is a validation trip. Boo Hoo!
As for words of wisdom (Doh!!!) That's about it, except have the time of your life.
Cheers and take good care of yourself and that brood of yours.
Keep posting

Re: Got the " 4 days to go jitters"
BB,
Understand EXACTLY what you are feeling. Me and the wife are due to leave the good old Uk on 15th May. We both finished work on Friday last week and now are unemployed...Just sorting the last few things (definite dates for packers, car booting etc) and still hoping somebody will buy our house (been on market since start of Feb but no takers). However, the real hard bit has been seeing friends around the country for the "last time for a while".
Am sure you've asked yourself the question , "what the ***** am I doing, leaving all these great mates, support network etc etc ?" I know we have but we also keep thinking,"imagine getting this far into the PR process and then NOT going?" I reckon once you've touched down in Oz things will seem different (that's what we're hoping for!). Remember, it's the things we DON'T DO that we regret not the things we DO! (old chinese proverb...wise old man type saying
)
Good luck and promise to post back here when you're back online!
Gee
(2 weeks until the start of a 4 month camper van trip around Oz then settling in either Melb or Syd....)

Hi BB & family
Not long to go now another day closer than yesterday. Don`t worry about the quivering lip alchohol will sort that out.
Take care and have a wonderful trip and enjoy your new lives.

Hi BB and family,
Have enjoyed reading your posts and look forward to hearing more from you when you have passed over to the other side (of the world of course).
Am hoping to be out there soon (along with the rest of the family).
Have a drink or few to calm your nerves purely medicinal you understand.
Good luck

Hi Guys
Can is just say that when you get here- as long as you have some pals to meet up with- you really dont give a toss about what you felt before. It's like you never went through it- the 2 year wait, the house sale, the good byes. I dunno- I know i am lucky but even Deano will tell you- a beer fridge full of piss and a crop in the garden is a great healer!!!!

Having just gone through it, it's all worth it. Don't look back! It's brilliant so far. The saying goodbye is hard but once you get here it's all so new and exciting you don't have time to think about it. The homesickness will come in time I'm sure, but for now it's FANTASTIC!
Enjoy it and if you fancy meeting up give us a shout!
