Phew!!! That's a relief!! Hopefully now you can relax and enjoy the holiday.
I am trying to decide what day to post off application to DIMIA. I think I want it to get there after they get back to work from the new year celebrations.
I am daydreaming of my most recent trip (spent 8 days camping on North Stradbroke) and it was heaven. Here and now, it is well below freezing with a bit of snow on the ground.
Next Christmas I hope to be in a much warmer place.
Merry Christmas everyone.

Happy Christmas everyone
Well it is a very grey and dull xmas morning in Sydney.. very windy too
Still we are determined to enjoy our first Australian christmas regardless, although it does feel very strange not to be with our family. Just had text from friends who we usually spend christmas eve with.. they are in the pub which is packed with people.
Took the kids to the cinema last night to see The Polar Express and cinema was empty, no christmas music in the mall either, just feels very different!
Hoping to get on the beach later for a special bbq and salad.... if the sun comes out

Did everyone have a good Christmas? I had a lovely day but really suffering from indigestion and have my top button undone because i've got so fat
The events in Indonesia and huge surrounding area have saddened me - I feel so useless and can't believe the scale of the disaster. It kind of makes all our worries seem so trivial when you have seen these poor people running for their lives from huge tidal waves.
Sorry to be so depressing,
Lynn

Credit card was debited on 24th December after all thet worry about my ANMC modified skills asessment getting there on time
If there new 2 day processing policy is anything to go by I would imagine that they would process my application on 4th/ 5th of January and return it to me. With the snail mail I should get it back in a week or so!!! Do they e-mail you usually about ANMC assessment?
Good news anyway (I'm getting there, slowly but surely!)

I have applied for my registration in New South Wales, so Im only at the beginning of the process.
My account has been debited of the $50 by the NSW board and £45
(I think ) by the NMC.
I have the modified skills assessment form 1/2 completed, health checks and medicals are to be sorted. Its all a bit complex, the worry is making sure it is all correct as mistakes are goint to delay the process. We will wait to hear if we have a visa before selling the house although may put it on the market in a month or so.
We looked into animal transport also:
Horse £6500!!!! :scared:
Dog (very small terrier) £2000 includes the various fees on arrival.
Im gonna have lots of questions to ask so please be kind.

Its police checks and medicals for us next, Oh and references....need to break it to the DN sister I work with 1st about my plans before I can ask for a reference! Due to all the delay and hassle getting my refs for the QLD registration I have already got the blank headed paper and am going to type refs myself for each job detailing my hours etc. and everything else they are looking for - and then shove it under the bosses noses to sign! Should b much faster that way
