Had an email this morning and this whole thing's sttarting to look extremely long term now. Thoroughly depressed so think I might have to start looking at an alternative to the 457 visa before I turn 30!!! Defo on for the 8/6 by the way.

Doc, I've got the shirts and the thongs but they were out of extra small for you I'm afraid.

Sorry to hear that you will be going alone. But well done for following your dream and going alone. Many people would have just given up.

Make sure you get over there and suss (sp!) everything out in Adelaide, and then come on here and let me and the other people heading for Adelaide know.

Hi all

I am still waiting to sell house before i can get to adelaide but i have only just come back and the place is great i also went to hospital to see about my job and the were so friendly and have better staff ratio than we do at the hospital i work in here!

So please everyone send me luck in selling this house as thats the only thing stopping me from jumping on a plane now!

You just never know what is round the corner, i never thought i would be doing it alone, its quite scary but quite exciting too:eek:

Take care love claire. x
