The Good News Only Thread - Post your good news here!
 
All too often, all we post on BE are our moans and gripes. So I thought it would be nice to have a thread where we can share our good news - visas, house sales, qualifications, new jobs, house purchases etc, etc.....

Away you go!:thumbup:

I have been having nagging doubts about our choice for a while. I love the heat - I hate being cold. I'm the person who has thick cardi's on when everyone else is in t-shirts. :D
We met up with the stuckinblighty's on Sunday and it got us thinking about our decision. (It's all Lee's fault :p).

Now all the research starts again. Where are the affordable family suburbs close to The Royal Brisbane or Princess alexandra? :blink:
