So are the beers on you? Gotta celebrate it's a big day!
Hope this is the first of many and that the taxman doesn't find out about any of it

it's a nice feeling isn't it? I managed to find a job pretty quick and it makes all the difference.

we didn't bring a heap of cash over but had enough to put a deposit on a house and we move in at the end of Jan, that will mean that the last of our pounds are gone and it's dollars all the way now. We've even changed the bathroom scales to read kilos instead of lbs!

Good luck.
