Just wanted to say hello
We are off to Perth in March, house is just going through so should be moving out in a couple of weeks (fingers crossed) and into a rental.
Any ideas on where you are hoping to settle once you get there?

Re: just to say hello.
Hi Just wanted to say Hi as well.
We got back from our validating trip on the 1st Sept from Perth for 19days.
We just need to sell the house then will be back again, house been on the market nearly a year..
So good luck with all, have you been to Perth before?.
Hubby said Australia is not what he expected the country to be like , but do not know what he expected anyway, it did not have the wow factor that he was expecting. NO i can`t work him out either.. !!!!!!!!
Pauline and JOhn

Re: just to say hello.
We are also thinking of Mandurah. We have already been over and validated. My mum is in Singleton at the mo but building in Lakelands. We have just put a deposit on a plot in Pinjarra, mainly cos they were selling bigger plots. Not sure if it could possibly be too far in whopp whopp!!!! Sorry about spelling.
We only got back thursday winter there was good,even though only went for 19days, kids were sunbathing on the beach cant be bad... Even though the Ozzie looked at them a bit strange...
Anyway HI!!!
