Ok so sorry to those who helped in the past before we actually arrived that I have not had time to draw breath since arriving some 4 months ago. So what have we all been up to well:
Me working since 2 week of arriving struggling with the differences in processes and what seems the medical model of nursing at times, am waiting for a new position to come up in the new year.

Hubby working since week 3 vehicle warranty, but changed jobs 1 month back with a substantial rise (I'm going partime!!!)

Youngest daughter just finished a course at TAFE successfully and now planning next year. Eldest working partime and off to TAFE in Jan in Prep for uni 07.

House bought lovely 4 bed lowset in Redlands area, Birkdale which is lovely just 10 mins walk from water front and near to the lovely Wellington Point.

Christmas Tree up lights on and decorations from the UK hanging!!!!!!!
So to everyone waiting good luck and to those on their way hurry up you'll miss the glorious summer Try the Bundy Rum when you get here
