Have you looked in to jobs for yourself? Only ask as you do a similar job to me?? Jayne |

But, I don't think it went through. Sorry if you now get this twice. Our furniture goes in two weeks with Anglo, and we wanted to use the same insurance company you posted about a few weeks ago . However, we can not find your posts. Please can you let us know who you are insuring with as it seemed a good deal. Thanks Sonja & Gary |

As suggested by The_Effys we are starting a new thread. Anyone going to be settling in Perth in 2007/2008? We would love to hear from new people who maybe not on the other list and those of you already on the list.
Any information people have that they think will be beneficial to others in the same boat is really appreciated, reminds us of all the things we have to get done. Sarah/Dave:cool: We were in Perth last year but had to return to sell the house. Shipping furniture out now and getting quotes A bit scary. Its is more difficult to meet people when your kids have flown the nest and its just the two of you. Last year every time we were invited out I said yes, just so we could meet people. My husband got used to coming home from the golf club and having to meet new mystery friends. Let us know where the BBQ is we will be living in Mindarie North Perth. Thanks Pat and Ted |

Have you looked in to jobs for yourself? Only ask as you do a similar job to me?? Jayne Yes I have looked at jobs and I am a level 3 Teaching assistant but in N. Ireland we are called classroom assistant because the teachers put up a fight to get the word teaching removed... (how sad lol) The level 3 is the same in oz but they are just called teachers aids out there. I will have a wee look in the Carine/duncraig area for a nosey.. Thank you for your reply .. Joy |

Singapore airlines allow double baggage and a stopover.......just send them an e-mail to confirm then you have it in writing when you get to Singapore airport......We had no probs, the check in agent just had to confirm with her supervisor but the e-mail was enough.....
Pam x x thanks for the info :thumbup: lisa x |

really pleased about that - you might aswell fit a week away somewhere nice (as its on your journey) to recharge your batteries after all the stress of moving - before it all starts again i.e finding jobs/schools/houses etc....:thumbsup:
thanks for the info :thumbup: lisa x |
