Flight OK, got the extra baggage no questions asked, got through AQIS fine and hotel (Aarons Hotel) good. Just off for some brekkie, a stroll then sort out TFN, bank and some boring stuff.

Hey hey, welcome to Oz Bridiej. So glad that you finally made it. Makes all that stressing seem worthwhile doesn't it?
Here's hoping it's all you want it to be. We are still loving it 8 weeks on!
Hope you get the boring stuff out the way quickly, and don't forget to get those drivers licenses as soon as you can, we found it a great help getting them first. Made getting all the other stuff done a lot easier.

Hey Bridie
Glad you arrived safely, go get the boring stuff out the way, and then enjoy the sun that the peeps keep mentioning (Grrrrrrr)
Will look forward to your thoughts when you have the time

Great to see you have made it there safely.

As soon as you get a chance, get your bums out to the beaches. Lovely. Last time I was in perth, I went to a great little cafe/resteraunt in Cottesloe, right on the beach, fantastic to have your brekkie whilst watching the sea.

Good luck with all the boring stuff, get it out of the way and enjoy yourself.

Glad to here it. And good that you's have arrived in one piece. Have a good rest and then it will be all go. Which part of Perth are you hoping to settle in or have you not looked into that one yet. We arrive on our validation trip on 16th Dec, four weeks and cant wait
Good luck anyway and I hope its all plain sailing for you from now on. Enjoy your new life

I can't believe that you are really there, and from now on, you'll be posting from 'the other side!'. As Rooksie says, "Surreal!"

Glad to hear that you've arrived safe and sound, and looking forward to hearing about how you're settling in. Any news on how your little cat's doing?
