Hi Jan,

I just looked where Maida Vale is as I had never heard of it and it is quite away from anyone I know with kids that age. There may be people on the list that have settled over that way or maybe you could put out a post to find someone for him to get to know.

Sarah

Thanks Sarah

Might just do that

Any help would be gratefuly recieved,:thumbsup:
thanks.
ps. hope your enjoying your new life and wewll done:thumbup:

Hi toan
sorry for the late reply, I now have the internet at home and will be able to keep up to date with my messages etc.
Are you referring to rentals? If so we just drove around and picked up the details and booked a viewing, I did find it easier to go on realestate.com and phone the agents, this was how we got our rental. We found lot's of people were viewing and because the owner's choose who they want we offered to pay 4 months rent in advance and I think this secured it! I have a little dog also so I was a bit limited to rentals. We could have done without putting up so much because we had to compensate and buy an old car!!!! But at least my rents paid!!!
Good Luck to you.:)

Hi All, This is our first entry to this thread, however I have really enjoyed reading everybodies progress. Could we please be entered onto the list.

Nigel (44)- Electrical Engineer, Alexandra (40), Callum (12) and William (10), we are flying on the 4th April 2008 and landing on the 5th April 2008. We are hopefully aiming for Canning Vale (rentals permitting) or Mandurah depending on where the jobs arise.

We are just about to start sending out CV's now we can give an arrival date. Still waiting for the ARTC people to get back to us, so that Nige can apply for his electrical licence. Callum has nearly saved up for a surf board and William can't wait to join one of the Archery clubs :thumbup:. I can't wait to see the real thing rather than pictures on the Internet.

I'll have to go now, I'm getting addicted to this wonderful site. :eek:

We just went on the SA site, went to 'My booking' (think it was called), you enter in your flight number and name.

Then there was the option of booking your seat and your meal, we did both.:)

So your dog has done his time already? We are hoping to find a cat friendly rental by the time Gordon gets out.:lol:

Just checked it again and its all in order.

Im wondering if it is dependent on the ticket type that you have or if your ticket is on special offer or something?
