Super news & wishing you all the very best

Get you guys

We were just thinking of you and if you had given up on the idea of going at all as havnt seen you posting for ages.

We to should be going at the end of June and should be exchanging on the house on the 1st, should have been the 21st May but it didnt happen.

Feels good to see someone like ourselves finally get there as its been 3 years for us in August and 2 years since we met at the meet in Radlett, everyone else is there and have been for a while, just us left.

When do you actually leave the house and a re you getting nervous, we are bricking it

Must speak before you go or meet when we get there as we will be in same boat

Good luck Mick n Claire

thanks everyone for your good wishes it is much appreciated, you would thing after all the heartache of the last year we would be singing from the rooftops but actually we are not we are just very nervous about the whole thing we feel better today than yesterday after seeing both our parents cry when we told them.

the amount of phone calls and paperwork i have done is unreal dont anybody think it stops when your house exchanges.

on the flipside we have got great things to look forward to in W.A. and will have our best friends to meet us at the airport.

mick we are completing on the 13th June and moving to my inlaws for 10 days and then flying out, if not before see you on the other side. i will still have the same email address so keep in touch

Just saw this one - not on here much these days.

Brilliant news Sue & Mick - hope all goes a lot more smoothly from here on.

It's been a long haul hasn't it? As you know we're in Brisbane but suddenly Nikki has been asked to go to Perth for a week so by the time you've settled in we shall be visiting! (If all goes to plan and we get there around 3rd August)

Keep in touch (PM if you've lost my email address) and hopefully we can get together for lunch or a drink.

Keep smiling

Well done!! You'll love it here!!

And about flaming time too! Great news hon. You'll be fine once you're on that plane. I remember you saying years ago that there was no hurry but I don't think you meant it to take this long

Have a brilliant life in Secret Harbour.
