Yes we went a few years back now but absolutely loved it as we did all of Oz
and always thought of moving there but circumstances never presented themselves until last year... and we just went for it.

Yes we would love to meet up, stay in touch and hopefully may not be too soon now.
I don't know how long from when you send back documents required to visa grant is but they asked for value statement which we sent back in July but must have got lost and a family tree to link sponsor and applicant, which I thought was done at application but will redo.
Anyway take care and enjoy your celebrations.

The stylophone - no doubt about it. Can't now concentrate you know and I'm meant to be cooking for the brood! Can I blame you if dinner is ruined! I am, though it is well known, an awful cook!

Sure,
you can blame us for the economic crisis if you like, it doesn't matter we are on a cloud at the moment, so silly, when you think it's only a case officer.
It's so nice that so many people like you, on here are happy for us when I know how frustrating it is with all the waiting, but I just hope it gives others comfort to know that they are nearer to that dream.
Good luck to you Jane and all the thousands still waiting to hear.:thumbsup:

PS
(I'm sure your cooking can't be that bad)
