I'm 10 points short at mo but hey ho - will sort that in June. I'll go without a job if it comes to it, but thats not very brave of me seeing as I've only myself to consider. Show was freezing, mud, hail, driving winds and then 5 inches of snow. I must be mad. NO - hang on - I am mad!

My sisters boyf did two years in NZ - he said it was so damp in winter all his shoes went mouldy. Ewwwww no thanks. Oz it shall be for me!!!!! See you out there Fizz. :thumbsup:

I caught sight of the thread yesterday and thought i'd best get on board.
I'm going it alone and hoping to get to melbourne sometime later this year. i've just booked meds and have just received the all clear with police checks.
Hopefully, i can now get to hear how it's going for everyone else, if i can manage to use this site ok (only at dummy level at present)

graham :confused_smile:

just thought I'd welcome you to TOLT. where abouts in melbourne you planning on? I'm hoping to be in Mornington by mid August (although I way just pack up and go the second my visa hits the mat)

Hi

I'm going it alone too!
I'm 31, no kids, hoping to settle in or around the Gold Coast (have family there) but that will depend on where I find work. I am a podiatrist and am hoping to secure a job before I go (aiming for 6 moths or so) which will determine where I initially settle anyway.

Any other Podiatrists on here or singles northern lasses around my age? Im from manchester.
