Why is it so quiet on here on weekends!?

rangersman

Thats a bummer, that happened to me too, in the end she told me to write it (shhhh) and she read it and signed it as she would never have got round to doing it, that was about 4 weeks later. It really is frustrating, is there anyone else that could do it for you, a junior sister?? Chin up!

I actually did write it for her (shhh) more or less. I told her what needed to be in it for the work history bit.

Anyway, thanks rangersman...but not to worry now as she eventually gave it to me last Thursday (after a lot of nagging from various others too) thank god!

I am now ready to continue with my application....Yipee

rangersman

Well done!

Well wheres everybody at now?

We fly 9 weeks on Monday and I only have another 7 working weeks left (1 weeks holiday)

Don't have a job yet, though have applied for a couple of community nursing posts recently - seems like I shouldn't have too many problems getting some casual community work when we arrive though as i've had good feedback from my CV and have been urged to phone when we arrive in Brisbane. Still determined not to go back into a 'ward' job again cause community nursing is what I love.

Marc no job yet either - his problem is that he's so laid back he's horizontal - need to become a 'nag' again and sort him out!

Poppy's flight is all booked too - she fly's same day as us on a BA flight and the will go into quarantine in Sydney.

Hi Debs - good to hear from you! We fly exactly 1 week after you (Mon 31st Oct), I finish up work on Fri 21st Oct and leaving party planned for Sat 22nd Oct - same day as your party!

Our container is already at sea - expected to arrive in Brisbane 7th October! We are going to pay for months storage in Brisbane so that our stuff is definately ready when we are - just a matter of phoning to book delivery appointment when we have found our rental house in Brisbane - is it Brisbane you are off to Debs?

I'm sure you will be there 1st Paul - we are all set to go now but want a few extra months wages so that we have plenty of $$$!

Its not a competition you know Paul!!?

I'm not rushing things - I want to do this move properly - want it all well planned out so that we settle in smoothly - would be a disaster if we run out of money and had to come home!
