Re: Brown snake!!! :-)

I missunderstood that comment then. Sorry. As for the inaccessability of resources, fair enough, although the snake catcher would only feature for me when a snake is in the house or really has set up...

No, currently I don't (nearly there though). But before you give me any more of the you don't know what it's like attitude - as a child I lived in India and as a grown up I have worked outdoors in...

Re: Brown snake!!! :-)

Ah. An interesting fact is that of the about 2 people a year who die of snake bites in Australia, they were either trying to handle them or kill them.

What is wrong with simply leaving it be and...

Re: Brown snake!!! :-)

Fair enough, hadn't considered the anonymous factor. Glad to hear you're in a better place. Did not mean to discourage anyone with my comments.

That is not how I meant it. I meant the people saying yes and yes would possibly be taking the piss, not those who actually are unhappy and are here for sympathy. Just think it is unlikely for people...

Re: Best private and government schools in Adelaide please.

I've been told by quite a few Adelaideans that Brighton High is really sought after, which also means house prices in the area are a bit higher.

Re: Australian citizenship cancels British nationality!

A British citizen cannot loose their nationality unless under quite dramatic circumstances, but because there is the whole ex-Empire thing some people are not "full" British citizens. These are...

Re: Applying for citizenship by conferral as the child of a former Australian citizen

Thanks Jilliebee! Yes, am moving to Australia later this year. Have to wait for the certificate before I can apply for a passport. Hopefully still have just enough time to get it all done.

Re: Citizenship Resumption Query (Form 132)

Thanks Moneypenny. I am in London, so the high commission is right here. I was just worried that since it would be a first time application it would take longer.

Also, any ideas what to do if the...

Re: Citizenship Resumption Query (Form 132)

Wow that is over 4 months it took them to process your application. Their service standard is only 77 days. Did they get in touch with you at all during this period?

Re: Carp fishing?

They do do carp fishing in Australia, but your OH would have to kill the carp as it is an invasive species and it is illegal (maybe this is state dependent) to release them again.

Re: Impact of multiple credit cards?
