Re: tips for people living in oz thread
we've had to replace one every time we go to the UK for three weeks. The Bloke leaves someone with the keys and they run the car every couple of days but the battery still dies by the time we get back. Three batteries in just over four years, and RACQ say thats normal. They refused to believe me that the UK has batteries that last for years!

Ensure all your friends and family migrate with you, thus ensuring no home sickness.

Re: tips for people living in oz thread
dont put bleach in your septic tank..
when buying a house with a septic tank be aware that if you extend your more than likely going to have to have all new septics and leach drains...
now if someone had posted that 6 months ago..that would of been a saving of 12 grand for me...
