Default OMG! We are going to Melbourne now!

hi

jc has just called the company and its defo Melbourne where he will be based, the reason for this is that the Sydney office have recruited internally only, so think he did well to get it as they only needed half the people than they did intitally.....

So guys here we go again, this time to Melbourne......
she said we should recieve a formal offer of employment and tranfer agreement by Wednesday, so fingers x'd its a good one!

So i will have to ring back Golden Arrow and get another qoute for montu, by the way, the qoute for he to go to Sydney was £1750 all in, that was for a box 29" high and cant remeber how long just incase anyone wants a rough idea.....

wonder if it will be more or less for melbourne?

thanks for all of the advice on melbourne, keep it comming

OMG Laura and jc (and Montu)

Aw you guys!!! Well you are def going and that is the main thing. You are so lucky! I will be looking out on Weds for your update so let us know.
I dont think the transport costs for Montu will that be much different but it is wise to inform golden arrow.

Good luck you guys, love and hugs to you both!

Laura!

Well done - another recruit for the Melbourne Women's Drinking club !

Some of us here have been talking about having an Expats' picnic sometime in January - will you be over here by then...?

Look forward to meeting you, anyway!

Cheers,
Anya.
