Was actually homesick coming back to the UK for about 5 months which was kind of strange...Never mind this time it's for keeps! What about you guys...what's your story? Cheers Ginny |

Cheers Ginny Hi Ginny Not sure yet, havent decided between Brisbane and Perth, although i'm favouring Brisbane at the moment. Enjoyed both when we went on hols but living theres different. Hopefully going back at the end of the year to have good look around at suburbs etc. We are still at the beginning, hopefully have our TRA sent off this week. OH is a carpenter/ joiner so it'll have to be where theres plenty of work. Joex |

I'm sure it will all go fine. It'll be over before you know it !! I know what you mean about getting organised. I don't know where to start. Of course I don't even know when we are going yet, but feel that if I don't start doing something soon, I may run out of time. I think I'll have a beer, cos the panic is setting in :scared: :beer: |

People keep saying they will get the refs done and then you have to ring half a dozen times to chase them up. Where you planning on going? Joex |

It was hard work, but it only took 3 months to do all of them from him leaving school. Hi Wendy Done most of them myself and just got them to sign. The one we are waiting for now is from a bloke Mark worked with when he was an apprentice 20 odd years ago, I typed it out and he was supposed to be printing it on his letterhead that was about 4 weeks ago!! Marks been on to them again today and they have promised to get it done straight away!! That should be it then, just need to get everything certified. Joex |

Know a bloke in Townsville hope you don't end up living near him lol he's rough bugger would rob ya soon as look at ya.....Funny thing he was never at school and always in trouble with the Police but got into Aus without any problems! Crime must pay lol :D |
Re: 6 weeks to go!
Good luck with everything. Once you are there you will wonder what all the panic was about. Keep your chin up and have a great time in Aus. Looking forward to reading your threads from Brissie.
Good luck. Sandra x

Where you planning on going? Joex We are hoping to head to Brisbane. Hubby is just putting the finishing touches to his employers ref and he'll take it in tomorrow for signing. He has already asked the guy to read it and sign it and he has said it would be no problem. Hoping to do the same for his previous employer too so it should just be a case of them reading it and signing it - well that's the theory anyway. Just booked the solicitors today for certifying of docs then hopefully book the courier for next Wed - we're heading off on hols next Thursday so hoping to get everything done and dusted for TRA before we go. Hope you get your refs okay. Scotschick |
