Brown Family Update!!

[brownfamily]

Hi all,

Apologies for not updating you all sooner, but it's been a bit of a whirlwind here

We sold our house to the first person that looked round it last week, and they are cash buyers and no chain involved so it should all go through in about 6 weeks.

OH has been accepted onto the bricklaying course in Nambour starting 9th July this year

Visa is being lodged on Monday (have put all the required information together my end) and once lodged we need to arrange the meds asap.

Have sold one of our cars (need the other one until we go), in process of selling the caravan. We are having a quote for the shipping next week from Allied Pickfords (and thanks for the tip about 50kg baggage allowance from the CD, it really is true with Emirates) so well worth looking into.....

With the house selling so quickly and no chain it means that if we wanted to we can go at the end of May (we haven't decided yet) as you can go 6 weeks in advance of course start date on student visa. But if we did it would give the kids some time off, ready to start school 10th July after the school hols in Oz.

Apologies for the long thread but there has been so much going on .

I will keep you all posted

Excellent im sooo glad everything is falling into place for you,,the feeling just gets better,,giving the kids a few week to settle is ideal ,we did that with Zak,,settled in this area end of November and he started school in the january,it was actually the schools idea and must admit it worked well and gave him time to adjust .Good luck with the rest of that big endless list we all know so well and hopefully see you soon,,
