So you had a barbie kaye's way nice

Beth you can have the red carpet I want the crowds, welcome banners, flowers and champagne when I arrive, nothing to OTT

ROTFLMAO When are you going Kaye? We are awaiting an email with the job offer to give us a start date for hubby
Feels a bit too real today!!!

Hi Liz......LOL...my Dad is a Chiropodist so I've been brought up looking at other people's feet
BTW.......the only bloods they took at our meds were HIV tests......they only do the Hep C if you will be working as a nurse/doctor or with kids etc. So don't fret too much about your liver enzymes going crazy on your diet...LOL
Our meds took 22 days to be finalised after arriving at LCU......but some people have said 3 days
Still having a major panic over what the start date will be for hubby.......but I guess we will work something out soon with the house.

Hey Chiropodist is a swear word to Podiatrists!! ha ha, we still do old peoples feet too (well not for much longer) but we now have to do a degree which involves much anatomy, physiology, biomechanics etc..which I fortunately love. No more corns and callus for me when we get to Oz..i will just be doing sports injuries..yipeeeeee!! I have a sports therapy diploma and did a bit of that but it wasn't quite enough which is why I have done the degree..to specialise in lower limb injuries..all those nice football and rugby players legs!
Hope they only do HIV, I will have to have Hep B and C as had to have them done here for the job. I have a printout of bloods anyway that were only done 3 months ago so will take them with me.
You will be over there so soon.
Lets hope my meds come back in 3 days then! I want to be out there by the end of March so I can sponsor Jen and get her out there before June for her 40th birthday (old git)! Playing off the removal firms against each other at the moment to see who will reduce theirs the most! Got 2 more lots coming Friday to give quotes..like to be organised. One company quoted £8000, I nearly fell of my chair and e mailed asking if they had quoted for 2 houses to be shipped!
Thanks for your mails.

Got dog shippers sorted and managed to get few hundred quid off of that.

Glad I found someone to talk too....LOL
Really feel worried about leaving my friends and family today........won't cope without a good natter every day...LOL
They don't do a full blood check on your meds......so you'll be fine!!!

Hopefully April/May time few loose ends to tie up here LIKE GETTING OUR BLOODY VISAS :curse:

Should hear any day cant think whats holding them up I bet Bix has paid them off

Love ya Bix xx

He must have paid mine off too...anything to get out of showing me how to BBQ!!! :curse::curse:
You little devil Bix. You really are quite a celebrity on this site aren't you..and a brilliant source of info for cairns..ever thought of writing a book? You would make a fortune! Now, if you take that seriously I want creative rights!!
Lizx

Kaye, you are on this site far too much...ooops, that means I must be too. May need therapy to ween me off it. Need therapy for a lot of things!

Beth, you can PM me anytime..will send you my number if you ever need a chat..we are in the same boat..except you have your visa and the goal is in clear sight!! You have harder family goodbyes than me though. I think you will have to get your mum out there on a retirement visa what with both you and your sister going out there!

Really glad I found you lot!!!! Haven't been on this thread for long and I have managed to get a job for hubby, decide to live in Cairns, made some great new cyber-friends and have had lots of info off Bix!!!
Had a lovely bunch of daffodils off my mum today.....spring is almost here!!!! although we have snow coming this Friday

Quick question for anyone in Cairns, a post on the barbie has inspired me to ask do we need heating in Cairns at any particular time of year.

I know I have been told that its shorts weather all year round but does it get cold enough to need it.

thanks

Just wears socks with your flip flops.....LOL
I just hope there is a bloody good Indian Takeaway somewhere in Cairns!!!! I love a good curry
Beth x x

oooh me to a few beers and a lovely chicken curry I think me and you Beth will get on like a house on fire

Oh brilliant......another curry lover!!!! Can't beat a bloody good curry and a cold beer...LOL
Beth x x

i think you will be dissappointed on the curry front. there are a few restaurants in town and soon to be one in palm cove but fairly ordinary.
