Re: Whos gone/going back?
There was no Primark when we left 10 years ago, but I went in there when we were last home. I really missed the Harlequin and St.Albans market last Xmas, mainly for the atmosphere and that British Christmasy feel. It's dead here at Xmas and I loathe it. How long have you been away?
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

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
