Buying a car in Perth, driving to and living in Adelaide

Re: Buying a car in Perth, driving to and living in Adelaide
Hi all, well it has been a little while since I posted on here. Our plans changed in the end so the drive from Perth to Adelaide didn't happen. We are here in Australia though, in Brisbane, slightly different to Perth or Adelaide I know. My husband got a really good job in Brisbane, too good to turn down in fact, all interviews done over Skype, amazing. As we hadn't really decided on where we wanted to end up we thought we would give Brisbane a go.
We arrived 2nd Jan, flew from UK on New Years Eve so a great start to a New Year for us. We booked a hotel in the city for a couple of weeks while we looked for some longer term rentals, we moved into our lovely new apartment 3/4 weeks ago and are now on the hunt for buying a house and land. A tough search but you got start some time.
We are loving it here, we have been here 6 weeks now and keep questioning why we feel like we have settled so quickly. I am now looking for work and have had a couple if interviews, so fingers crossed.
So all good this end, just need to make some friends and have some of those barby's you all keep talking about :P LOL speak soon x

Sounds like a busy, fun time.
Didn't you have State Sponsorship to SA though? I might be completely wrong though
