Any one else making lists?
 
Does any one know where i can find a list of things to be done before leaving UK on BE? I've tried doing a search but not having much joy.I know we're not going till Jan. and i have done all this before but I thought it might be nice to be a bit better organised this time round :blink:
It will also give me something to think about:huh:

Here is a link to a thread in the Australia Section with lists of things to do and links to other threads with lists of things to do!!

Plenty of reading for you there I think :p :D

Good luck with it all :thumbsup:

If you would like some practice, you could write me some lists & get me organised!:D
Keep talking about car boot sales, shipping quotes etc but not quite managing to actually do any of it so far!:blink:

Hi sally,

I'm with you there, keep putting it of but have to start soon. Time running out. I've got to get the dog travel booked at least. :unsure:

How are you doing?

House on market at last, viewers yesterday who apparently are keen & no chain. Sounds a bit too much like good fortune for us though:blink::unsure:

Sounds good, fingers crossed for you. :thumbsup:
We are hoping to go in Nov. Are you still heading to Cairns?
So much to sort out. Need to start a list myself, but need a list to remind myself to make a list.:blink:

Fingers crossed on that too, I'm sure it will fall in to place, and who knows this time next year winter on a beach.

We're just in the very beginning of the visa process (457) and have at least 16 months left over here, but I've already started with my lists :rofl:
It keeps me busy as my OH is working in a different country for the next 6 months and I'll only be able to see him for 2 weeks in this long time.

So I started lists for: 1. What do we want to do and see in Germany before we leave, 2. same for the UK, 3. same for Holland, 4. Contracts/insurances - when to cancel, 5. ebay - what to sell on it (yes, I've already started to put a few things on there. Rather too soon than too late :p )
I'm sure there'll be lots of lists to come :rofl:
