I cant believe its so close to christmas going to look up australian dishes have a proper christmas day whoo hoo it will be a bitter sweet day i think a mixture of missing home and having fun

Happy Christmas my friends

Sorry things are so slow. I have read that it is the worst time to find a job. Fingers crossed things pick up very soon.

An Australian Christmas will be lovely!

Hi Lissa
I fly out in a couple of weeks and need to validate by mid Feb, Im just going to play it by ear so we'll see how it works out. Just about to start looking for a job.
I thought my finances were all sorted until i saw how much the £ has dropped against the $ which has been a complete bummer!!!, oh well nevermind, ill keep my house here until the market picks up and then think about selling. At the moment its a double whamy house prices drop and then you get a naff exchange rate so as long as the rent covers the mortgage im not too bothered at the moment.

It varies with every case. Ours was a week from meds finalizing.
Did you use an agent??

Good luck and hope your not waiting much longer.
