You will be just fine.

My meds are in two months and PCC in a month, so I have ages to get excited.

DIMA said it will take about 6 months to process application.

Are you shipping everything or just personal stuff?

taking the lot - loads of girls toys and stuff and we have almost brand new leather suite and new beds. if it was all old sh*t i might have considered not bothering but its works out cheaper in the long run to take it with us. :D

I had a quote for 125kgs to take computer, photos, personal stuff - purely an estimate because I havent got a clue how much it all ways, I was quoted £465 via air, door to door.

I will ask them to pack my PC as I want it done well.

I reckon it will be less anyway, but I think I would rather someone come to the house and have a look rather than me take a wild guess.
