Errr, not really. :eek::eek:

It will be a house call as Polyanna was talking about a major atmospheric event along the lines (I think?) of:

Cat 1/Cat 2 = party
Cat 3 = stay at home
Cat 4 / Cat 5 = head west

If you're coming soon and want a fab place to live the house where we lived is available, we only moved because it was too far from kids school...

Looks really nice but think I need to find a house for when dog comes out..if it was available for 3 months at same price then I would consider it short term!! Shame..hope to be there beginning April if all goes to plan!

Can't believe it..what a shame..was looking forward to meeting you!!
Bit colder in Taz compard to Cairns..sure snakes wouldn't have been a problem unless you lived up in hills near Rainforest etc....good luck and keep us posted. Was it better than the job offer in Cairns?
