Haha a maintenance electrician isn't like wiring houses and stuff. I work in industry, basically keep stuff running. Fault finding on production machinery, the odd crane. There's definately work for me down under but the better paid stuff is fly in / fly out. Not sure I want that.

We were thinking 3 years. It gives us and our family plenty of time to digest what's happening. And going back to my work it gives me time to pad my cv out. There's opportunities available to me that I've never taken because I'm happy doing what I do.

Thanks for the replies guys. ? I'm a maintenance electrician. Though the sector I work in here doesn't exist in Australia, but I can't see that being an issue. The Mrs is a nurse, nurse practitioner by the time we'd move. We have two kids. The eldest is 20 months old and the youngest is only 9 months. To be honest they're the biggest hurdle for us, by that I mean it would be heartbreaking for the grand parents.

I just thought I'd say hello. It's undoubtedly the busy season for day dreaming of Australia. -3 when I woke up this morning and it'll be the same when I go to work tonight. I've done a working holiday maker visa plus a further 5 trips to Australia. Including our wedding. The wife's been twice and we love the place, so migration is back on the menu. Or is it? I dunno. You must get dozens of dreamers on here lol. ? So aye, hello again. ?
