Update - Jed has got his provisional plumbers and drainers licence and gets gas tomorrow. Hooraaaa we thought but alas no - getting a job is another story! they want you to have 2 years Aussie plumbing experience - catch 22 springs to mind :rolleyes:

still havent exchanged fekkin contracts on house but should be any day now with completion set for 28 april. we are living on a shoestring so i will have to cope a while longer without puter! :scared:

its lovely here in caloundra - beaches are fantastic and its beautiful place for kids etc etc. not too big either so finding our way around pretty easily.

im going to have to start that blog soon!!

Hiya Jacs,
We have been looking at Coloundra what schools have you got your kidywinks in ?? I have been looking at a few that way and they look and sound good, so in 8 weeks or so we should be out there having a look, maybe can meet up if you are not suffering too much with morning sickness !!! :)
Plus Leah and Grace could meet too would be lovely
