I was sitting here all jealous thinking that you had snow - SC reported snow earlier today you know....

We stayed for 3 days on Phillip Island had a great time. Stayed in a motel which was quite cheap but hadf a pool etc. Went to the Nobbies to see the seals, (PMSL at the name), Did the penguins and Koala Park and the wacky museum thingie which DD loved. Went on the beach etc. I think there were a couple of things we didn't get round to as well - so a good weekend breaks worth of stuff that the kids would enjoy.. There is no rush for you though, it's not going anywhere - probably better to go when it's quieter.

You know we don't get much snow down here compared to Caephilly - there could be a good 2 feet up there and it would still be sunny, (more likely rainy) here.

Roll on 30 March then.

Sorry can't help with the corporate let. Maybe have a chat with your solicitor, I would imagine they would be able to help.

Brill news. Less to take, less in the container, less money to pay out.

We've got snow on and off here. Not heavy or settling here. The kids are hoping that we get loads more so they can build a snowman.

The snow used to be really bad in Blackwood.....

We lived on the side of the mountain and when it snowed couldn't get to work.. It was worse there than in Brecon most of the time

Will go to Phillip Island soon.... Promised youngest that we would go - problem is the oldest two have made loads of friends so want to stay around here now

I'm happy they have settled in though honest I am

Massive egg on the side of her head too
Take her home, with the other 3 girls kicking and screaming as they want to stay and play!!!, 3 year old falls asleep......so I'm worried that she is unconscious!!!! Wakes up 2 hours later and is like a button!!!
Then hubby decides we shouldn't move to Oz!!!!
Took a few hours to persuade him we are doing the right thing by going, even if we will be financially worse off.
Emotionally drained I demand a hot curry from the local Indian takeaway........and bloody enjoyed it!!!
What a day!!!

Beth, you had one hell of a day yesterday! Hope you are all doing better, glad your little one was ok. How long until the off? How is your OH today?

Sorry, don't know. Not long now until the 30th, but still very frustrating for you. :curse: Did you go down yesterday?

Sounds like things are moving well for you. So you are ok about the furniture, it was anything you were desperate to take.

J, did you have a better sleep last night?

It was snowing with us quite hard yesterday afternoon but none of it stuck.
Saying that, just looked out of the window and it starting again!

My kids used to be gutted when they got snow in the hols as they didn't get to miss school...

Might drive to see the snow here in the winter - thought we wouldn't get to see it again when we moved...
