Hi Everyone
Ive been offline for a couple of days now Im writing this on my sisters pc....had to clean it up first though it was in an appauling state with alsorts on it that she wasnt aware of... so it has taken me hours to finally be able to get on here.
The shippers came wednesday and that all went well and we moved in with my mum that night and completion was yesterday and it was such a weird feeling seeing all that money go into our bank account and the house not being ours anymore. I booked our flights this morning and that set us back £2,600.00 which I thought was very reasonable for a fam of 5....we go on the 25th Jan :scared: :scared: :scared: and thats exactly how Im feeling .... terrified.
I wont get online much as am having to use rellies pc,s but will do my best to keep you up to date

Im feeling .... terrified.
It could be worse, you could be followed by TV cameras watching your every move, catching every stress and arguement and waiting for you to fail!!! (as in the new life down under progs)

Seriously, dont panic, have faith in yourself, I am sure it will be the best decision you have ever made

Good luck and god bless x

Great news Sky. I think we moved out and completed on the same day - mine sounded a lot more stressful though!
See you out there if you are going near to Brissie.
