Been here (Syndey) since last October and going back end of April, I think it was christmas here that really made our minds up that Australia was not for us, I loathed it too, no nice chrismasy bits to eat from Marks/Tesco/Sainsbury (Coles & Woolworth are crap IMO) and no real christmas atmosphere and of course no friends or family! I just couldnt stand that year after year. We still have our house so we are off home

We have found christmas hard here in France, the first year we managed to tell ourselves that it's not too bad and it's only our first year.

The second Christmas we were thinking, this is shite

Can I ask a question, you are taking your dog back ??? Is there quarrantine in the UK still, how does it work. It was easy for us to come to NZ with ours but now we want to go back but won't put him through that trial.

Hi Sharron - we took our dogs back from Oz - they just needed the rabies vaccine 6 months before they flew so they didn't have to go into quarrantine in the UK - check it out with your vet and they will advise you. Good luck with everything
