I think Adelaide sounds fab and looks wonderful. OH likes the sound of QLD. We have friends there which would be good but Adelaide still sounds affordable and lots of people seem to think the education and health systems are better. Is this true, does anybody know? Which hospitals do you nurse in? I'm a theatre nurse and need a job!

Lou, don't think you would have any problems finding a theatre job. I am a community nurse & jobs not as easily available as in the hospitals. We are going to apply for PR once skill assessment is back from ANMC and if necessary I'll sign with an agency & find something permanent once we are there. At the moment deciding where to head for and getting there are the priorities!!!
Good luck to you & keep in touch!
Sally

Hi, I am a nurse in Adelaide. Been here 9 months now and loving it. I work at the RAH ( Royal Adelaide Hospital) in Emergency. It's a massive trauma centre so never short of excitement. 24hr theatre and there are always jobs going. PM me and i'll see if i can get you into contact with the manager.

I have 2 boys 10 and 9yrs and they love the life and school!!

Adelaide has lots to offer. It has a coast and hills to the north so there is a bit of something for everyone. We are planning to move their too. House prices are reasonable and the weather is not as hot as the gold coast. Hopefully i wont have a problem getting a job there as a nurse from a couple of agencies i have spoken too. Good luck whatever you decide x

Flinders Medical centre sounds and looks good. If we do head to Adelaide, that's where my husband is looking.

Is it true that whole streets are ethnically cleansed.

I can imagine moving to a new estate and finding everyone there unloading their stuff is a GBP1,000 Pom.
