Hi

Ahh thanks Caz

We are in Giltbrook (near Ikea) and are hoping to go to Brisbane, we have just sent off our TRAs as are looking to go on an SIR visa, good news is they are apparently quite quick these days.

We don't have any kids just our Abi (Border Collie 1 definately coming and Charley Cat 10 jury is out on whether it would be cruel or kind to take her)

Will be lovely to meet up hopefully Bubbles will let us sneak in as long as we promise not to bring the animals!

Looking forward to some of this :beer: although mines a red wine remember we must help the Oz economy by drinking red wine (they have a wine glut!).

Cheers :)

Mark whose my "meal ticket!" fingers crossed is a Printer - I work as a call centre manager currently but I am up for anything once in Oz.

Domestic Goddess sounds great - tee hee wonder if I can get away with that in Oz after all the pool will need cleaning regularly by floating in itwith a cool glass of something?

:D
