Just found your post. We have not been on site for some time been a bit mad this end.
We also left uk 25/10/07 and arrived 26th. We are now living in Rockingham. My OH also was a BT engineer and doing the same as you in the (uk) I think. What are you doing for work now ? Have you moved back into telecoms? How are you settling in?

We have settled in quite well although the heat takes some getting used to.

I have a job in telecoms with a local company the does work for Service Stream (Telstra main contracter for Perth south of the river and beyond). I was a CSE in London the work here requires more flexability and a lot of digging! It pays the bills and I'm outside in the sun - so no complaints from me:thumbup:

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.

Welcome Mike,
We fly out on the 10th feb so just two weeks left for us now and we are nervous too, although we have recently found out that my dad has cancer so we may have to put things on hold for a while.
Good luck with your plans

:)

Hi,

Looks like travel will be earlier now , was down on list for May but have sold house and motorbike. Waiting for missives to be signed and then i can book flights for end March 1st week April. God i can t wait . Staying with relatives short term until i can find 6 month let. Need to get a car second hand too so if anyone knows of honest garage to go look please let me know ;).

God thought the moment would never come. Still getting rid of everything in the house as only taking some personal momento s nothing else . Need to start fresh. looking to rent furnished for 6 months so can take time to check everything out. I am excited but worried at same time if that makes sense. Teenagers will hopefully make some friends out there so they settle.

After 6 month rental hope to buy but will need mortgage too.

:thumbsup:

Linda

Hi all,

Welcome to bazzle and dor34. I have adjusted any details on the list as requested.

Hopefully if enough people are interested we can try and arrange a meet up for the end of February/beginning of March? There should be loads of new people arriving here before then. Let me know what you all think.
