Hi we brought our washer/dryer over and it seemed fine but had internal damage from the trip over. which when we read the small print on insurance was not covered.it only covered external damage. so check the small print on your insurance first. rach
If I could change anything it would be that I would have brought everything. Bring it all cause they will work and you will save yourself time and money...also bring a decent vacum cleaner if you can.
Hi Sharon
I am in Cairns! paradise. Bedding can be expensive, but when you get a good sale on in Adairs or Myers you can pick up some bargains, remember we mainly have double beds in UK, much more queen and king size here, because of size of homes. Karen
Great have a king size, but only a single for son, he wanted a double when we moved, he may have to have a queen lol
We brought our TV and got a box (sorry don't know the technical term), but Nigel pluged it in and it worked. We also brought our washing machine and dryer as they weren't that old and we thought if we got 12 months out of them it was 12 months without having to buy a new one. 15 months on and still going strong. You'll be surprised in winter how much you use your dryer.

We desp need new Tvs here but didnt bother cause wanting to move. The 2 potables are ok though just the main one very old.
Are they like digi boxes here? If so may bring the portables

Yes i agree, we brought everything with us even my beloved "Henry" whos great on the hard floors, along with a Panasonic viera LCD TV which we purchased from Currys in 2003 & works fine here in Oz with a set top box (The capability of a set-top box will depend upon its specifications. A set-top box, when connected to an analogue television set, will usually give viewers an improved signal, SDTV-equivalent picture quality and select on screen enhancements. Set-top boxes can provide a picture output to either analogue or digital screen displays.)Some friends of ours can only get 2 out of all the free to air channels even with a set top box simply becuase of where their property is situated and the distance from the transmission tower. This is not needed if you have in Foxtel installed - since we have purchased a new tv & now just use the uk tv in another room (we do think the tvs here are a bit pricey) This link is quite a helpful site regarding tv's Mr Antenna - Australia's Leading T.V antenna Installation Company, reception, digital, installations, MR1317, MR1823, MR08, Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, Brisbane, Adelaide, TV, Videoespec in the FAQ p.s. even our landline phones worked here in oz Gizmo

With TV's just remember that Analog signal is going to be switched off in Australia about 2009 -2010 All tv will then be using Digital Signal you can get around this but using a Digital set up box
