Things didnt work out first time round, we collapsed at first hurdle - yes i know, was a stupid thing to do, should off stuck it out, but anyway i want to try again but other half not interested.

We have this chance that alot of people would dream off and cant do.

Any advice and thoughts would be great.

We are a family of 5, 3 girls aged 14, 12 and 3.
I can totally sympathise with your situation. We are in the exact same predicament but it's the other way round with us - he wants to go and I'm not convinced. The upside for us is that we don't have young kids to consider. OH has two grown up children who are making their own way in the world now.

I'm not sure what would be different if we did it again - apart from changes in our mindset and how we view the people/things in our lives.

We have until May 2013 and then our visa runs out and that's pretty much it for us.........I can hear the clock ticking very loudly at the moment!

I hope you manage to talk properly about your issues with the move and come to a happy conclusion.

Xx

Nothing you can do. Unless you want Oz more than him?
