Returning to the UK: where are you in the process?
 
While frequenting the MBTTUK forum, you see a lot of familiar faces. Some of us already have plans in place, while others are just thinking of moving back at this stage.

I just thought it would be interesting to do a quick poll, to see who's where in the process of moving back.

It should be a public poll (if I do this right!).

As the poll says, in the process but no exact date as yet. Wish I did and then everything else should fall into place. :unsure:

Good luck to everyone which ever stage your at.

I knew that I wouldn't do the poll think right - I never do. :( Ah, well.

We're off on the 21st July. I've gone from being really sad about leaving Aus to really looking forwards to being back in the UK. Most things are sorted; just need to find somewhere to live now. :eek:

We are about 2-3 years away from moving back (from NZ) we are trying Oz first before finally going 'home'...aaaahhhh...
And about 6-8 months before we leave NZ (or sooner if we can):D

I'm in a situation where one of us has already gone back and I'm waiting to sell the house and follow. It's a horrible state to be in and I wouldn't recommend it.

We don't have a car. We live very close to the CBD in Sydney and have just never had a need for one. So that's something we don't have to worry about at least. :)
