We found the same thing at the Edinburgh show that the OZ and NZ presentations seemed to be a lot busier.
Presentations were again excellent- more variety this year. But, having been on the Sunday this year, and last, found the Canadian stands and presentations much, much quieter this year. Oz and Nz as busy as every. Perhaps people put off by the wait? Or perhaps everybody went on Saturday?

We wanted to go but illness made the 3 hour journey impractical. Will have to hang on for the Expo in Leeds in June - has anyone been to one of those ?
Did anyone see an agency called PeopleMovers Global ? I spotted a few jobs that may be suitable on the emigrate website but can't make out if they are an employment agency or an immigration consultancy (or a mix of both as they seem to charge fees).

Did anybody attend the Emigrate Show in Sandown today? If so, what did you think?
We went (after getting some complementary tickets at the reception at Canada House on Thursday), and thought it was pretty good. However, as we applied for PR two years ago (and still waiting), we knew most of what they told us.
Also, I still find it strange how everybody (including the staff at Canada House) keep telling us how desperate they are in Canada to find skilled workers) it still takes forever, even if you try and go the PNP route.

The kids were happy because they got lots of freebies and sweeties and we got back very excited planning our move.

It's a shame that the CHC didn't have a stand there this time.
We have been a been to a couple now and this time it was fun meeting 'celebs' like Louise Green and Mike Cole. Chatting to people like them makes you realise your own enthusiasm for the emigration project.
