hey moonstar, i read that somewhere else, hard luck mate. but never fear you will soon be over in aus mopping up all the lonely single ladies with scuba steve and myself, and that is worth keeping in mind over the next few weeks while the visa is approved!
sport unites us as future aussies, it's the way of life. love it! i was reading a bit about thredbo, looks like a decent ski resort, $400 for 5 days, 6 hrs from sydney, $190 board/boots hire if you need it.. looks the dogs. We'll need to plan a trip for july/august i think. Aquamarine how is your lad? i read about about that injury earlier, sounds rough but at his age sure he'll soon heal up. Not like us poor oldies! afraid i am on the injury list, damaged ankle ligaments playing 5-a-side tonight, was having a great game too. 4 hrs in A&E, gutted! No sports for a while.. i'm sure we're only single cause we are migrating. no room for getting involved now. Feel like a bloody monk! Steve isn't Steve and doesn't scuba!! Gutted!! Who CAN scuba? It's top of my "to do" list as I love the water but I get vertigo snorkelling - HONEST!!! |

Even from a sales background you'll find it very comfartable, one thing i will however point out is that you should shout about what you do and your achievments, if you dont then someone else will! it can be a dog eat dog world in recruitment so make sure your a fighter!!! good luck pal and hopefully we'll catch a beer when we're down there. are you going on a 457 sponsorship or WHV to start with? |
Re: The Official Loners Thread
hello today guys!
i'm walking ok thanks, v swollen, bit tender and circulation is a bit knackered, cold toes! hah but fine thank you! but wait.. scuba steve is not called steve? this is big news. big, big news. I'm not sure i can trust someone who pretends to be a steve when they aren't a steve. O.M.G. :ohmy: hahah you're out of the circle of trust, buddy! Aquamarine let your boy wear the sling, all the girls will nurse him & that's important for a young lad (actually it's important for older lads too. Wishing i had a nurse today!) Well looks like a lot of us boys feeling the same about our gals, but if they aren't prepared to risk ANYTHING for us, how can we really be expected to trust that they care enough to stay with them? Mine hasn't fought to keep me one bit, and I'm a bloody catch! I'm confident - 100% confident - that we will forget all about it when we get out there and get on with our lives. And you all know that. xzibit your skill assesment will work out fine matey, go for it. And i have to say, Pom central or not, Coogee is a gorgeous suburb with everything going for it (for what i want, anyway)! So it'll do for a start! Only issue is it's pricey, especially for a poor graphic designer like me! no OTE here! Oh well, at least i can make us cool t-shirt prints for out snowsports/singles night clubs haha :) speaking of which, i watched that ski sunday and they went to Thredbo, didn't see very much of it but they mentioned that it gets 700,000 visitors in season, so will be a bit rammed! But generally looking good for boarders, plenty of rails, jumps etc and it's quite high (2500m ish). Can't wait. So to answer the query of when/where - Coogee, mid may. Will stay a week or so with my sis when i get there in the northern suburbs, depending on employment situation! anyway that's me, time for an afternoon movie and a brew.. being off work in sydney would be so much nicer, i could get a tan for a start.. |

Going to a heaven and hell fancy dress this weekend actually, could do with some advice. On the shortlist are Hitler, Hussein, Harold Shipman or a nun.

Re: The Official Loners Thread
AH! I'm really on a downer today! :(
Last night I was all geared up and excited about applying for Vetassess today. This morning I filled in the online form and have saved it just before the pay and submit part (as need to wait for Monday to pay), and I booked in for the solicitors tomorrow morning to have my docs certified, and I went and got some passport photos done (god I hate having my photo taken, although I look surprisingly good lol). Now, for some reason I'm in the "why am I doing all this" mode, and "whats wrong with the uk" and I can't get out of it. Just so annoying as I know I want to go ahead with it all, and I'll totally regret it if I don't but I hate the indecisiveness!! I will force myself through it all, and then be ok again, but I hate it. It's the g/f I think. Wierd situation at the moment, I want to go, a bit apprehensive about leaving her here, although, she is possibly now up for coming over :) but she's not convinced on it yet etc etc. Anyway, ignore me, I'm turning it into a Dear Deirdrie thread lol. :rofl: |
