Hah, you just wait until you've got the visa and then you've got to organise the move. That's when you turn into a blue-arsed fly nutcase and you'll long for the days when you had nothing more urgent to do than sit and wait!

Hi Donna

Interesting thread. We've not been to bad in Gateshead today bit of sun so it's ok.

Do agree with you on the going mad bit thou. I've been in limbo land or lala land more like for the past 6 weeks, searching this forum religiously!! Just for some sanity.

Comment about getting visas then rushing around like blue arse flies getting things organised will be a piece of cake to what we've been through, believe me!!

You could always crack a bottle open, just like me, he slurs!!

I am terribly addicted to this website already, and I only discovered it just over a week ago!! My husband is fed up with me sneaking upstairs to log on!!!! I tell him it's invaluable research, but in truth being on this site makes me feel one step closer to Brisbane!!!!!!!
