If pp could organise me a cheap rate for being ferried about over the next few weeks I'd love it!
Had my strategy all worked out for getting enough money over to Aus to buy my car but it's all fallen apart - the damn application for additional loan got lost in the post so my mortgage lender won't get the money to me before I go.
Am looking at 2.75% charge on credit card now - £137 on £5000 - I was going to transfer from my account to my sister's for £20.
%$**er!

Hiya pp,
I'm staying in Salisbury North, and I need a (fairly small) automatic adapted with a left accelerator pedal. I emailed the SA Disability Information Resource Centre in Adelaide asking if they knew of anywhere I can hire an adapted car but didn't get a reply.
I'm annoyed with myself for not chasing the loan application sooner - posted the form 31 December but didn't twig that I should have at least had an acknowledgement, only checked this week.
I'll pay the credit card charge if I have to, I'm just annoyed at wasting over £100 I could have put to better use, like
You don't have any ideas do you?

If I could fit you in my case AND you weigh less than 10kg you can have the job.
Otherwise you're going to have to wait till you get your very own visa...
