Shippers Monday
 
Eeek! I am sitting amongst chaos of lifes laundry, piles of to do lists left. Shippers arrive in morning for a 3 day move. Think i'm still in denial.

We fly to SYD on 3rd May then head to Nelson Bay. Jolly excited and nervous at same time. The rollercoaster in most deinately climbing the steep rails ready for a fast ride ahead.

Now where did I put the to do list. Any advice?

Poor you! I am at the beginning just looking for shipping companies to provide quotes, had one quote from John Mason-s which completely floored me, so now trying to get more quotes.

Hopefully once the shippers arrive everything will fall into place for you and you will wonder why you were so stressed!

My daughter moved back to Aus 3 years ago and she never batted an eyelid when it came to packing- just opened the door, let them in and let them get on with it! Mind you she's they type that is oblivious to that kind o stress! lol

Good luck with the move and hope you enjoy your new venture and new life in Australia.:thumbsup:

Good luck with it all :thumbup:

As for the roller coaster ride you'll be climbing to the top of just one of the peaks!

Nelsons Bay is a great place to be, it will be worth all the stress. When your stuff finally arrives it will be like Christmas, if you've got kids they will love opening all their old toys. :thumbup:

Well nearly 3 months on we have now rceived our shipping and moved into a house in Nelson Bay. Delighted to say all of the shipping/packing went well and nothing damaged/broken (just my heart at times).

Nelson Bay is certainly a stunning place, enjoying it so far and long may it continue. :thumbup:
