irresponsible????
.........or early August??
I am sick of this weather and have been googling a weeks holiday for me and 2 kids for one week during summer holidays. The prices are astronomical :curse: I got to thinking ......................................... if i have to pay that amount of money for ONE week hol maybe i should just head off to Oz and finish off my reccie that was ruined at easter??? I have somewhere to stay so wouldonly have to pay for flights and spending money. what you think? irresponsible (should be saving dosh for visa) ??? or sensible - good opportunity to make some plans.
What are the logistics etc regarding my visa grant?? i am 136 MODL and believe i have to be out of the country when it is granted?
MMMMmmmmmmmmmmm !!!!!!!! now i got to thinking!

Re: irresponsible????
I so know what you mean about the cost of holidays. We were going to go to Majorca, but when we decided we wanted to go to Oz, found it was cheaper to fly to Sydney for two weeks. OK we haven't got to pay for accommodation, but Sydney or Majorca???? Think we made the right decision!
i am so close to booking it - BUT am i being a bit extravagant or irresponsible LOL
I NEEEEEEEEEEED to be in Oz

Re: irresponsible????
Irresponsible is my middle name, go on line and book it, just remember what most of us are already doing, leaving good payed jobs and arriving in a new country with no income, selling our houses and having no where to live, leaving the people who love and care for us. You have already taken the step that many people would only dream of. Go the whole hog, book it, pack it and F**K off and worry about it later.

i went out at easter fora reccie which was totally ruined (long story buried on another thread somewhere) so realistically this could be a good move with regard to checking out Bunbury where i am drawn to but never been and check out uni and housing etc etc
have i justified the expense yet LOLcheapest flights i can find are £940!!!!!!!!!
that sounds pretty steep to me what you think??????????

Re: irresponsible????
We justified our trip to ourselves as a "legitimate moving expense"... same as visa fees, removals etc etc....
Would be better to have at least an idea of the area you're going to. Depends a lot on your personal finances whether that £1000 will make that much of a difference in the whole scheme of things.
Sounds like you have already decided anyway
Just seen that that £1000 was for one ticket..... Lot of money if you have to buy 3!
