People thought we were mad too..............maybe it is a yorkshire thing. Glad you have settled anyhow and are enjoying life here, we love it too.

Definitely recommend the move to Australia, we came to Queensland so can't comment on Melbourne.

we love it and i would recomend anyone to do it ! it's hard to leave family and stuff but hey you live your life for you at the end of the day and if it's what you want then go for it it's a day away from england if you dont like it you go back ! but the opportunites that we have now are so much more than living in a 2 up 2 down in grey keighley ! oh and melbourne is a fantastic place so much to do and see ... mel
