Hu we are from Kinross-shire and are going to Perth in June hopefully once house is sold.... we can book flights so looking forward to it

Melbourne for me

:d :d

So you've changed your mind then Margaret? What made you choose Melbourne in the end?

Gill

We're near Falkirk, hoping to go out end of the year to either Adelaide or Melbourne (depending on which visa we end up with).

I agree with Sandra - get your other half to come join us in Dundee in a couple of weeks. When we met in January, none of us had met before but we had a real laugh.

Gill

Thanks for all replies.

Didn't realise so many Scots moving to Melbourne area.

Hardest part is waiting for paperwork and trying to decide where to live.

I'm a biker so i need good roads, but also want somewhere to learn to scuba dive.

Anyone know where about they're moving to.

People who are already there. Where's the best place to live for kids?

It's Melbourne for me......... my two sisters & their families are already settle in North Ringwood, so the decision is already made for us.

We're a 139 visa and going by austimeline we should have our visa end of July early Aug.......... it can't come quick enough. (My parents are also moving)

Jane

That's amazing, lots of support for each other

..it's not only you with good taste bordy.....

for us it's Melbourn's climate

We have 2 boys aged 4 & 5 and have never been to Melbourne before, so we did loads of research in here (which is great) and other sites, and found that in Mornington peninsula (SE Melbourne) there are plenty of nice areas which are great for kids. Our first choice was South Frankston (still possibility) but prefer Mornington. We will just have to wait until get there and check out for ourselves, we are renting serviced apartments, or a caravan for first few weeks to allow us time to look around at areas and houses. I sort of had the area picked out before we even decided to go ahead with our application.

Have a look here

Hiya,

We're originally from Hamilton and living in the isle of man just now( unfortunately ). We've just sold our house ( we think ) and have just sent off for our skills assessments. We're hoping to be in marvelous Melbourne by the end of this year or very early next year all going well.
I also hope to be enjoyin a beer with a few of you in Melbourne at some stage!!
Cheers,
*pearly*

Hi Margaret,
I thought you were going to Perth. We will have to set up a Scottish Lassies Site in Melbourne when we all get there. Look oot Melbourne here we come. (Well hopefully that is!!!)Have you had your meds yet? Not sure if you got my PM about time to meet for Dundee.

Sandra

We are from Paisley and hoping to move to Brisbane. Just sent off our PC's and addiotional info that our case officer requested.

Actually Bordy, i think Billy Connoly and his Pie Float (or whatever you guys over there calli it) have a lot to do wth it or maybe you just do too good a sales pitch
