Hi Lynne, we are off to Central coast or Northern Beaches as my brother lives in Manly (way too dear for us!)
Where you from?
Good luck Sim.

Hi Sim,

We probably live about 10-15 mins from you as we live in Horwich, lol god it is a small world, Hoping to go to Sydney which is where i got the job, just awaiting on Visa approval.

Lynne

A very small world indeed!
I went to St Josephs secondary school & have just sold my business on the Loco works.
When you off?
We live in Adlington so even closer
Sim

Off any day now as visa approval is overdue so just awaiting on that phonecall lol.

My 8yr old son Max wants to know how old your kids are.(he's off school with a poorly tum, even though he seems fine now)
My wife Liz is down Chorley getting the last bit of info that our co asked for, so hopefully we should have our visa in March

I am sat reading a load of last weeks aussie newspapers, property & job papers brought over by Liz's boss yesterday, it makes the Bolton Evening News property section look a bit crap

Which area are you looking at? I,ll see if it's in these papers & you can borrow them if helpful.

Sim

My son is 9 years and Daughter 7 years, We are going to be moving to in and around Carlingford or Epping area, my job will be along the North Shore beaches in Sydney but we are not City people but Country people so dont mind commuting to work.

Lynne

Hope you're aware of all the hassles 457 holders have to deal with - eg high school fees in NSW. Is your employer going to cover all the extra health and education costs?

We already know about all them cost as we have researched before applying, we have done all the budgets for when we move

Lynne & Tony

Hello and welcome. Good luck with the visas and all the best for the future.

Had a phone call today to say it will be at least another month before we hear, Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
