The visa's burning a hole in my passport.
Hopefully won't take too long. The estate agents are putting our house in the paper again this week, they have splashed out on a double page full colour spread.

So no real interest in the house yet ?
I am absolutely itching to put my house on the market, but I know that the OH would be against it. I have no worries about selling, but the longer timeframe the better.
who would like a place like this ?

At least I see the family.

Thanks seang,
That was definitely on the agenda.
I've spent a fortune already on my agent so far for the business visa, so if he gets dropped, I definitely want my moneys worth

I went today back to the company today and talked for over 2 hours, and at the end of the conversation they said get your migration agent to contact me about sponsoring and I think we can do something. When can you start !!!! :scared:
I can't believe it.
The area where it is based is in Monbulk, which is absolutely glorious, it's about 45 minutes from Melbourne.
I phoned the wife to tell her, but it wqas 07.30am so I got a fairly damp reaction. I don't care, i'm now just finishing my 6 pack to celebrate and I just need to share it with somebody else.
thanks for listening.
