And then a third time ‘cos we didn’t believe the first two.
And then after 30 seconds silence while it sunk in.
We screamed.
We’ve got a visa.
We can go.
It’s actually happened.
All that bloody paperwork has finally paid up.
We have it.
And I still can’t really believe it.
It’s only been 2 weeks since we sent the PC checks off, we weren’t prepared for it yet.
Not that I’m complaining.
I think we may have to indulge in a glass or two this evening.
We’ve still not decided where we’re going yet.
Or arranged the packing, or sold the stuff we’re not taking, or……or…. .
One step at a time..
YIPEEE!!!!!

Thanks to everyone who has posted on this site, we only tend to post when we know stuff for sure (which isn’t often) but we’ve taken a lot of info. in from others. So thanks to everyone for his or her indirect help.

And its still not sunk in.

From sending our application in and getting THE LETTER took 3 months and 9 days ( not that we were counting )
Originally we were going to Adelaide but we now think we will go to Brisbane/Goldcoast area. Do you have your visa?
