Default That's it - jobless, homeless and on our way

Finally..........................
Just gave my boss the pleasant news, that after 9 years we are off to Oz, and our house completed at 9 am this morning.

Its been a really long road from the early giddy days of passing TRA - and reality setting in that this move could actually happen. We had a lot of set backs on the way, but managed to overcome them - and of course without this web site and the members who literally keep you going through thick and thin we would have probably given up before now.

So thank's to you all.

Hope I can give a bit back on the other side.

Angela and Paul

Applied September 2005.
Had baby June 2006
Received PR on the glorious 11th of August 2006.
Hanging aroung waiting for slack-arsed husband to finish exams = forever
Sick of dreich, bleak Dudley = bet your cotton socks
Remaining patience = none

What are we waiting for ..... nothing....I think it's a now or never situation and may well book those gorgeous Singapore tickets by the end of the week!

Good luck to you both on your adventure
We've been here 8 weeks and absolutely LOVE it even though we are still jobless (hubby has a 2nd interview today, everything crossed) and the house is still not finished .
Keep us up to date with your first impressions.
