Hi Liz,
Yeah sorry we won't get to meet in person now :(
Job offer was very similar in Tas......but slightly less pay, which we expected.

Re: First weeks in Cairns
 

Good luck to you both. My meds have been with LCU for 2 weeks now and it is driving me mad as have seen property I want to rent on Trinity Beach and its available 2nd week in April (when I plan to be there)..I could put 3 months rent down now..and pets are allowed, and its not brand new so bit bigger garden and more private..oh, I am getting frustrated now! It would be perfect for 6-12 months before we buy..we don't need a palace whilst renting..just want to be near beach for puppy walking and love the cafes along trinity beachfront..
Keep in touch..

Wow! You really like to keep on the rollercoaster don't you!
I am really sorry that we won't get to meet you too but really wish you well in Tas. When are you hoping to leave?

Can't be much longer now Liz. I have a good feeling for this week now that my police checks have finally arrived from the Virgin Islands so will keep my fingers crossed for you & have sent you some karma to hurry things along!

Re: First weeks in Cairns
 

Good luck, are you heading for cairns?? tell me more about the Virgin islands..my friend sold her house and two cars and her and her fella bought a yacht and sailed to B.V.I and set up a charter business there..I eventually lost touch with her and assume she has moved on elsewhere..shame as it was somewhere I always wanted to visit. Hope to meet you if you are going out to Cairns.

Beth,
Watch out Tasmania have monster snakes too, look what happened to a family on a camping trip:

Good luck with the move.

Re: First weeks in Cairns
 

We are hoping to aim for cairns Liz but will have to see where I am offered a job! If & when the visa comes, I will start applying to QLD health etc (nurse)

We lived in the BVI from 2000-2002. When were your friends there? Would be funny if we knew of them but we didn't mix with a lot of the charter people although my OH worked for the main supermarket & they did a lot of yacht provisioning. It is a beautiful place, very safe. Unfortunately the education & health care were seriously lacking & it was not for us long term but a great experience:thumbup:

Even Brisbane is trying to get in on the cat & snake act.....:D

What I don't understand is why the damn snake couldn't come back & finish the job, eat the girl & stop all that woosie screaming!:confused::p:lol:

Re: First weeks in Cairns
