Thank you :D

Good luck with move and scan. Dont forget to move around on the plane and wear some flight socks to prevent DVT. Its a long flight and you are more at risk of DVT coz you are pregnant.

Sorry if you know all this and to nag but the Midwife in me is never off duty.
Best wishes
Chris

Thanks Chris - my GP has told me to walk up and down the plane every half an hour, so I am sure I will be exhausted by the time we reach Oz. I aslo have a pair of dvt stockings, which I am hoping will be comfortable.

Thanks for the karma Roni. I will hopefully be able to give an update at my aunts house, we are staying with her until we get our own place.

Thanks again

ABCDiamond must be asleep, so I'll ask his question for him :D

Where are you hoping to settle in Brisbane?

I'm from Norn Iron too, Bangor to be precise.

Good luck with the move,

Hi JTL I have been to Bagnor a few times - lovely place esp on the odd occasion there is sunshine.

We are hoping to settle in Albany Creek as I have family there, and there is also a decent swimming pool and transport links to Brisbane.

Sent you back some K. An Essex girl! Where from :D

Re: One week to go!!!!!!
 

Odd occasion??? :p

Its called Sunny Bangor. Its always sunny there, its Northern Irelands Gold Coast!

Ok, not strictly true. It has its rotten days. But anyway...

You'll be shocked by the amount of sunshine you get here, I'm actually avoiding it now. Its like 10 or 12 hours a day. I look forward to rain!

Hope the move works well, don't get too wound up, :cool:

Cheers,
JTL

Re: One week to go!!!!!!
 

I love the idea of Bagnor being Northern Ireland's gold coast. I must just have been there on the odd occasions there wasn't sun.

I also love the idea of too much sun in Oz. I wouldn't have thought that possible. But I will have to wait and see.

Fraser - Thanks for the karma. I was born in Harlow in Essex. I believe the lovely Jade from big brother lives there.
