Default We Love Australia

Ten days in and we already love oz. Darren got a job at the first place he went to, we have brought a car and are about to start looking for a rental. All simple things but we feel a good start, OH and it helps being only 500 yards from the beach. Karen

Glad to read that you are loving it Karen.
We have been here just over 3 weeks now and still loving it. Spent today looking for a car and a rental , and really need to find jobs soon
I realise we wont know how much we like it till we are actually working and living a normal life.

I agree, we have been here 1 year and 2 or 3 weeks now , and we still have a cheshire cat grin !

For example:

Last nt woke at 3am and decided to do some net work, logged on and opened windows in office, sheesh the noise from the critters was deafenin !

Today drove home from work at 6pm, and 2 roos, scampered thru the grass next to me !

Australia, someat for us all !

Glad you have settled in so quickly..........a bit different to Birmingham I bet. We have been here 9 months now and I feel so lucky to be living in such a beautiful place.
