Great News Em go for it. Everything is looking up.
Guess What I didn't go to bed until about 2.00 this morning after filling in the "This is Australia" application form, so I was still in quite a deep sleep when OH handed me the phone at 7.15 this morning and it was a very nice Australian man from "This is Australia" agency. THAT WOKE ME UP !!!!
He said I had given him all the right info and that he would send me a application form to get paul on the bricklaying for July, which I have now got. I have to fill it in and send a copy of pauls passport back page. He said he would get that in but he was also going to talk to some people who may be able to get paul sponsored!!!! He did say not to get our hopes up just yet but he was going to do some digging.
How could we not get our hopes up, this is the first bit of positive that we have had.
Only trouble is Paul has had to go up to a funeral in Manchester and is not back until Thursday as we could have done with talking about it some more, but in the rush this morning we decided that we think we will go for it.
Another big suprise is that if it is Nambour college which it seems to be, it is only 27km from where pauls nan and grandad and uncle live, I couldn't beleive it . We had not cared where we went in Australia and expected it to be Perth side and even when i new nambour was in queensland i still hadn't realised who close. If we do go pauls mum will be so pleased as she goes over to see her parents every year and has just come back and said it was so upsetting to leave them as they are getting old and frail (They are in their 80's) So if we were there we could keep an eye on them. Also pauls uncle may be able to help with accomodation in advance. I'm running away with myself now.
Anyway will sign on later as children need to get ready for bed etc. I seem to be on the computer constantly!!
Heather, the agent was really thankful you gave their name and i have told him there are loads of us here. So Heather might see you there yet. Also my son who was 11 in December was quite pleased when i told him about you and your family, especially you son of nearly the same age.
I'm really going now - see you later
