Happy - Happy - Happy
Its now all systems go, the campervan has sold we can eat again!
Have booked our flights from Kuala Lumpar to Manchester just need to sort out the Perth to Singapore part. Plan geting the train from Singapore to KL. So have a small holiday on the way back.
Donna has a job lined up to start 5th April.
So for those waiting - be paitence, those coming out - good luck because despite all your planning you will need a dab of it. For those going back - pick up your sanity at the baggage claim in UK.
Will try and resist the temptation to post
as its easier for us to see the negatives rather than the positives and there are loads of both.
I will spend more time on the www.movingdownunder.co.uk web site and develop that to include more countries. Not done much with it since being here!!
All the best to you all.

Congratulations on the new job.
Please continue the postings. It will be very interesting to see your impressions of being back in UK, and whether they change after a number of months being back.
Sorry Australia wasnt the place you hoped it would be. I hope you do eventually find somewhere that gives you your dreams

For Singapore to KL try going via Malacca, a much more interesting place than KL. There are plenty of coaches going there from Singapore and they take from 3 hours depending on the traffic across the causeway.
