Great news Jac sounds much better 2nd time round :) :thumbup:

No phone eeekkkk:ohmy:! Good to hear you're getting settled:)

Over 6 weeks.....uncharted territory :thumbup:

PMSL Bixie:rofl:

Are they still enjoying themselves?:eek:

Aye. seems to be going okay.
No proper phone or internet though.

that must be hard... don't think i could cope with no internet or phone!

But glad to hear that things seem to be ok, give them my love! (please):D

Good luck Rooksie :thumbsup:

we're looking forward to hearing all about it once you're back on line.

I'll second that :thumbup: can't wait to hear all about it, especially the way you'll tell it :lol:

would you believe it, roughly ten weeks (cant be bothered to count) and we have internet. who said the aussies were laid back????:blink:

to cut a long story short, grace loves it here and wouldnt go back to torquay if you paid her - didnt see THAT one coming :thumbup::thumbup: daisy is the one who misses her chums and her nan and grandad but she is only 7 so she will get over it!

jed found work almost straight away and was working full time after 2 weeks with 3 job offers to choose from!! not bad eh. he was offered plumbing and gas work and opted for gas. so far, he has been to double island and various other places i cant even remember and is off to fiji soon and the solomon islands!!!

and me, well i am having my midlife crisis and have started uni!!!! thankfully im not the oldest student but i think im the shortest :o

we have bought a bag of crap car from Mr Wheels :curse: who are a load of tosspots :curse: nd i feel as though i am driving round in a bag of spanners but apart from that, its all good.

looking forward to meeting the master of verbal pish tomorrow :eek: providing bag of crap car makes it :mad:

in a nutshell, its all good and i am forever glad we gave it another go. we would have missed out on something really wonderful had we stayed put in the uk. i do miss torquay but the opportunities we have now didnt present themselves back "home".

id like to spend more time elaborating but as we have only just got online 10 minutes ago, there is a queue behind me!!:rolleyes:

Good to see you back Jack's:thumbsup:

Glad that everyone is more settled this time, give Bixie, Soapy and Bordy a run for their money when you all meet!:thumbsup:

Also good to hear that you've gone back to uni - i think a lot of us are in full time education here now. I'm at TAFE full time studying web design (geek or what!! haha). What are you studying?
