Ethanol fires

Re: Where to holiday from UK?

On Arrival Accommodation ceased

Due to Government cut backs the SA On Arrival Accommodation and Meet and Greet services have been shelved :thumbdown:.

Re: Crown Relocations v John Masons Shipping Companies?

We used John Masons in Jan 2009 and some things went missing - can only blame the removal guys not the company. Otherwise happy with their labelling/boxing and price.

Re: 887 Visa Applicants

I applied on 22 March (online) and no CO yet. Any consensus how long it takes for a CO to be assigned ?

For providing confirmation of a de facto relationship (began before arriving in Australia), what is required and does it need to be some-one in Australia or can it be parents in the UK ?

Re: Screwfix in Australia

Such a shame.

I guess we'll have to rely on Bunnings etc although the selection, quality and price won't be as competitive as screwfix.

Re: Screwfix in Australia

In the UK Screwfix started off like that and then expanded.

Re: Mobile Broadband

3gb is enough for my requirements. I spent a few weeks searching for jobs and used less than 2gb. You are able to monitor your usage and increase next month as required.
