sorry, I couldn't help that last one.

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.
I hear you. Hope it goes well. If you dont mind me suggesting that you have a chat with your agent about the possible implications of both (if you havent already done so). A few people on here have posted about the problems the encountered with the different types of visa.
Hope it all goes well

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

(€32.00 per email !! :scared: )

( 1 phone call € 132.00 !!!! :scared: )

I just don't give a sh*t at the moment, i'm on a high.

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.
You really are having a good time aren't you?

i'm just a softy at heart really.

I like my space and freedom , but I do miss them inside.

I have seen some things over the last few days, and it almost brought me to tears thinking that I would love to see all this with the family and not on my own.






see now what happens after a man drinks a 6 pack and a few gins, he starts to turn into a woman !!!!!! all soft and sentimental !!!!


OMG :scared:
