Funny that, I am a vehicle technician , moneypen's hubby is a car sprayer and so is Quill from Karrenjc.

Every time i look on the job search there are always paint sprayers on there which is reassuring. My husband works for Ford does any one know if there is an equivalent over in Robina or its surronding areas.

Think so, again ask Karrenjc, there is loads of dealers in the Southport area, it's worth emailing a few as i did and have secured employment.
Ford is huge in Australia so you shouldn't have a problem.

stacey and jordan

I will do that, i didn't realise you could email and ask if there is any job vacancies we aren't going over until next year. I will pm Karrenjc and ask about Ford. When are you going? and will you start work straight away when you get there.

Were going in July-August this year, i will start after three weeks, My employer has been great even going to lend me a car for a while. I sent them an email with my CV and they asked me to phone, that was it job offered and i have spoke to them a few times now about conditions and it sounds ok, even if it sucks it's a start.

stacey and jordan

I will tell the husband when he gets home and get him to start emailing.

Thank you again.

Hi Stacey
I like the Robina area a lot. There are many different parts to it - the older houses which tend to be built on larger blocks, and the newer areas. The Gallery is a lovely area, but the houses are a bit more expensive there.

When we first came to Australia we rented in varsity and it was a lovely complex with fully furnished apartments right near to Bond Uni.

Reedy Creek is also a very nice area to have a look at.

We will be moving back to the Robina area shortly.

Hi Stacey,

Don't worry about your baby, we picked up a travel cot for $100 from Target and ours is 19 months and sleep fine until his real cot arrives in a few weeks. We've been on the GC for 4 weeks now and rent (unfurnished) in Pacific Pines. Robina is nice, we have been down there a few times, but as others have said it all great on the GC, we didn't find a single area we wouldn't live in after trawling through the web pages. Only thing I would say is make sure the previuos tenants have moved out and the place is clean before you move in, we had a few interesting conversations with LJ Hooker (rental agency) regarding our moving day.

Good luck

Judith

I think you will struggle to rent furnished in Robina. When we first arrived, we rented a holiday let in Mermaid Beach for a few months and then bought in Robina once the dull routine of employment, school, shopping etc was established.

I've just re-read that. It sounds really negative doesn't it? Don't worry. It's just sardonic old me. Even though it's raining outside now, it beats the trolleys of old England.

Do you want this fish?

Well?

DO YOU?

Well bloody get on with it then, you're a long time dead you know.......
