Make your mark on the British Expats map!
Thought this was pretty cool - so I created a British Expats version. Visit this site, click on the 'Add Yourself' button and enter your details. The best view is if you click on the Hybrid button on the map. Bear in mind it's an early bit of code and that you'll probably have to add the largeish city near to you, rather than your actual town/village, but still it'd be nice to see the thing full of pin marks 
Oh and I haven't moved yet, so it's a kind of 'where we'll be in 9 months time' thing

That's cool. Felt the need to show off and put myself twice. If you zoom out to the bottom, it's amazing how close Aus is to the UK

Can't put myself on cos it won't accept any of the post codes I've tried - including Brisbane.
Any suggestions from fellow locals?

click on "not in the US" link below, and then just type the city name of Brisbane.
I've done mine - not in Australia yet, but almost there! Gotta hunt to find where I'm living
