Medicals Done
 

Woohooooo, all done and Dr doesn't see any problems at all. Massive relief all round. We can't wipe the smiles off our faces - god only knows how we'll feel when the visa actually arrives:D

Can recommend Dr Smart in Bonnyrigg very highly.

Another step closer Gill.....is it still Melbourne? What's your speculative ETA?

Re: Medicals Done
 

Yup, another step closer indeed, getting VERY excited. We don't expect visas before April/May and OH has 3 motnhs notice to serve at work so we expect to move around August time. Of course, that's assuming the house sells:o

Still heading to Melbourne. I think I'm going to do a trawl through realestate.com tonight, haven't looked for ages:D

When are you off?

Re: Medicals Done
 

We leave Edinburgh on the 23rd of Feb, arrive in Melbourne 28th Feb 2007.
Will look forward to meeting you in August 2007.

Re: Medicals Done
 

OMG Gill. Got goosebumps reading that. When do you think you'll be in Melbourne??

Cheers

Glad it went well, we had ours Thursday so relieved to get it out of the way too. All the best.

OMG BB, that's not long at all. How is everything going?

Definately have a beer or two when we get there.:beer:

Re: Medicals Done
 

Oh Ginny, it feels sooooo good. For so long we didn't even know if we'd be able to even apply for a visa and here we are doing medicals:D

If all goes to plan, we'll be coming over July/August time. Getting the house ready for sale right now and hoping to get on the market next month.

How's life in Brisbane? Are you OK since your Mum left?

Re: Medicals Done
 

Joe, congrats on getting your done too. It really is a huge relief isn't it.

When are you expecting to move?

Gill

Re: Medicals Done
 

Hi We arent planning on going for another 2 - 3 years, we arent sure where to go yet, Brisbane is favourite at the moment but hoping to go over to have a look at Melbourne in October to validate and for Marks 40th.

Have you been to Melbourne before?

Re: Medicals Done
 

I have been to Melbourne but it was over 14 years ago so I expect it's changed a fair bit since then.

Stay in touch and we can meet up for a beer when you go over in October - that's assuming I make it there by then:o :D .

Gill

Re: Medicals Done
 

I'm sure you'll get there before then. Thanks, that sounds good we are always up for a pint :beer:

Hope you dont have to wait too long now.

Re: Medicals Done
 

It was such a huge relief for me too. Out of all of the things you have to go through, this was the one thing that I was happiest about when it was done.

Hi Gill,

Getting over my folks going back. The first day I spent the morning with a friend in a cafe crying my eyes out! Getting easier now though. I'll be able to come and visit when you get over! Can't wait....

Cheers

Re: Medicals Done
 

Aww Ginny, cant have been easy. Don't worry, you can come down to Melbourne and we'll have a reunion of the Original Scottish Lassies:beer:

Talking of which, can you believe that it was almost exactly a year ago that we all met:) ?
