Default Its time to say goodbye....while I make the journey Down Under

It seems an age since I started on the visa process but after a long long time my cue has come to say farewell, albeit only intermittently, whilst I make my journey to Melbourne.

I fly on Monday and will hopefully manage to get onto the site over the weekend but as I am at my best mates I wont have the time I normally do. My PC goes into hibernation for a while tomorrow and will come out at some point in the future. I am not sure exactly when but I will post on to the site, here and there, from net cafes until I get sorted. If Melly people read this then can someone please PM me so I know if the meet is going ahead in August?? Thanks.

Take it easy everyone, have an enjoyable time and look forward to being back VERY soon.

To all those who are ending up or already in Melbourne then I look forward to meeting you.........for those heading elsewhere then enjoy.

What more can be said!!!!!

Take care

Ian
