I hit my folks with a triple whammy:
1) I'm going to get married to someone you have never met and I hardly know
2) I'm going to be a Dad
3) I'm emigrating to Oz

My Mother was heroically laid-back about the whole thing. Maybe she never liked me in the first place :lol:

When I first told people I wanted to go a couple asked......."Are you taking the sheep?"


My reply was always........"I think they have a few over there so I probably wont!"

My mother's initial response was "don't be so silly! Why would you want to do that?" Didn't like to say well it will get us 12,000 miles away from you :lol:

without exception everyone we have told has said, 'you lucky things' and 'wish we had done/could do that'

Says something doesn't it!
