We leave on 15th (dogs will have gone on 8th- they go to Overhill tomorrow). Cost for dogs over £3000! House being packed on 11th and 14th Jan.
Flying with Quantas, they do a 40kg bagage allowance for migrant ticket holders.

Hi All,

We are leaving on Saturday 19th Jan from Heathrow with Singapore Airlines, were hoping to stay there for a few days, but daughter has interview at school on the 23rd January, so arriving in Perth on the 20th.

Packers leaving Friday 18th... Leaving party Saturday 12th..

Emotions all over the place, happy, sad to leave friends and family, excited!! Changes often, but still can't wait to get on the plane!!!

House sold, hoping to complete on the 7th February, fingers crossed!!!

Jo

Hi
I'm using Overhill also, my dog fly's out the 20th, do you know if it's just the 1 night they stay at Overhill before being taken to Heathrow? I do feel guilty every time i look at her, keep telling her she's going on holiday soon

Hi,

We fly on the 27th but we're going to Brizzy, we had a dog and we looked into bringing her but it was bloody expensive and i was worried cos she was a big dog that she wouldn't take it too well, so we gave her to a friend and that broke my heart, looking back now i would've taken her and saved up the bloody money!! Animals eh!! bless them.

What are you doing when you get out there, i mean are you in a trade? I don't know about you but we're feeling extremely nervous and excited and worried and scared all at the same time!! We've got kids too so we've got their worries too!

Good luck to you and your family, i hope you'll settle in well

Thanks and good luck to you guys too It is indeed a a costly process taking the doggies-just forked out 350 at vets for blood tests today-they better pass or else! I think I might have left them with willing family had we any, just so they didn't have to go thru flights and quarantine poor loves

No jobs arranged-but we're seeing it as our big adventure! As long as were careful have enough put aside for 3-4 unemployed months. Have you got jobs to go to?

We haven't got jobs no, my husband has to get a certificate before he can work out there even though he's got a skilled Visa!! so we're looking when we get out there apparantely there are loads of jobs for him so we'll have to wait and see i suppose. Not really sure what to expect are you? we've just transferred most of our money over there but we haven't got much more to take by way of funding! a bit silly of us in hindsight, i'm sure we'll manage though, like they say it'll all come out in the wash with a bit of luck eh
