My case was purely by accident when I googled it one day, I was actually looking for another Ex Pat site which was pretty damned boring compared to this one.
Unfortunately by the time I found it I had already moved from Scotland to Aus.
Even so Ive met some great friends through it & more to come I suspect.

Re: Ok How did you find this site????
I can't remember the search engine I used when I came across the site, most probably Google or Yahoo. They are the ones I normally use. I found the site after we had got our visas, but got support from some lovely people here whilst going through the bigger stress to us of house selling, for which I am gratefull.
Now that I am in Oz I have made friends through expats and enjoy reading about other people's Oz journeys and how they have found it since moving out here.

This site was reccomended to us buy a fellow migrant; Terry Georgiou, who is now in Melbourne.
We came across Gerry's name at one of the sandown exhibitions on the pen pal (type) boards.

I found Go Matilda and emailed Alan Collet about some finance stuff, He said I could pay him, or post the questions on here and get the answers for free...... .....so you can blame him for my drivel over the last two years!
