Black trousers and a "aqua' coloured top.

You mean there was no National Anthem playing, or Aussie surfer dudes there to welcome you

May give it a miss then

Thanks for that, I will get my OH to put his evening gown and suspenders away then, congratulations to you.

I like the sound of only 5 minutes long, we should be able to blag it for that amount of time!

Rights (6) and Responsibilities (4) basically .... we were asked to each do half of each ...Carl started, and said the ones I was going to ...and I had a moment of panic - but remembered them (phew)

Then she went through all the documents, and that was that.

One guy near us had a much harder time

BTW how much did it cost. I thought it was free as they want us to be citizens. But then again nothings free here. Driving licence you have to pay ever 1, 3 or 5 years. Rip off! BTW how long does an Ozzie passport last for? 10 years or less?

That came around quick then. We put our forms in 2 weeks ago but we'll need to ring for an appointment in Bris soon. We're struggling to get our ID's verified too up here too though we can certainly get it done in Bris.
