Sorry i have to disagree as somebody that lives here in Margaret River. Get a proper wine tour its totally worth it especially if you want to do tastings.. YOU DO NOT WANT TO DRIVE !! I recommend Wine for dudes. Run by Johnno and Kirsty Drummond you will go to heaps of winerys plus they take you to the cheese and chocolate factory too. Pre planned route totally great. We also have amazing beaches here in Margaret River and also very safe !as far along caves road to Contos beach.

Hi Tonyman, Sorry for your bad news. Im a travel agent here in WA so let me know if you need any help. At the moment NO airlines do compassion seats. They phased them out years ago. Also you would have needed the death certificate. Cheapest flights at the moment are with Malaysian airlines (My personal fave) They are $1882.00 per person Child fare is $1625.00 child must be under 12yrs. These prices would be flying out in the next few days or even today and returning within the next 3 months. You do not need a passport to book the flights but i would not advise doing this. Best bet is Perth embassy and get an emergency passport which is $95.00.

Pleased for you as you sound very happy.. However i just want to say and this is not a dig at you.....im in WA and its like one big street party where i live everybody chats and hangs out playing cricket on Bank holidays etc, Kids roam the neighbourhood and i know them all by name including the many dogs!... I guess it all depends where you were living and if you too even made an effort to befriend your neighbours.

Employers do not care... a 190 is a Permanent visa you are a permanent resident .

If he does the skype interview he doesnt need to do the practical unless they are not satisfied... If he is a working chippy the interview will be easy for him.. Tell him to scrub up on health and safety questions though....

Is that $17,851 tthe total?? If so you are paying too much.

Maybe you should all move to the UAE where taking more than one wife is legal!! No chance at all to do this in Australia unless you divorce the 1st wife and bring the second in as defacto..

The fees are in place in most of UK rental agencys i believe it covers the credit check which is about 200 quid... You will only pay once so try to look at a rental agency with the most properties on their books as you will have to pay the fee with each one you use... Which is a big pain we had them in Cornwall but it was only 250 there i think...

I have a friend staying with us. She is working on a farm. They calculate it as weeks so if she only works 5 days they still give her seven etc etc... So 88 days works out at about 2.5 months...

Tvs are pretty cheap out here to be honest. I have heard of people having no problems or lots of problems. We bought a brand new 42 inch Sharp tv when we arrived for $349.00.. We bought a second 50 inch tv a few months back which is one of the no name chinese ones which is actually way better and that was only $329.00... We were dubious of them but lots of friends have them and they work great ..

Hay street would take about 30 mins to walk one end to the other maybe more.. Its a really long street!!

Uk may not even offer the surgery... The NHS are very reluctant to put you forward for surgery if at all avoidable. I was in a very similar situation but lived in the USA, i had seen doctors there and they said i needed surgery for a rotator cuff injury on my shoulder as it kept dislocating, Also i have worn down the tissue on my socket which makes it slide in and out easy. Anyway i couldnt do this in the USA as cost a fortune.. Over $100,000 and i had no insurance to cover it.. So i flew back to the UK after 12yrs in USA made an appointment at my Drs who referred me to a specialist... WOULD NOT GIVE ME SURGERY!! This went on for months.. and second opinions chats with physios all told me NHS really dont want people being put in for surgeries unless absolutley necarssary as it cost so much.........All im saying is check that this surgery is definitely needed because what the NHS class as needed is different from what the docs may have told you here. Edit to say... 4 yrs on i never did have the operation , I did 6 months physio then gave up i just ate painkillers and ibruprofen, gave up my job in the States as i needed a good shoulder for my job.

If she is a UK Passport holder she can extend for a further 3 months. So 6 months total. Very easy to do .

The guy that was taken yesterday worked with my Husband... So sad Chris was such a good bloke.. His girlfriend is distraught... I have banned my husband from surfing today.. On a more technical note the sharks are out in part because of the whale migration, They are hoping for a carcus or two.. Not sure why they havent mentioned this on the news as there are so many whales at the moment.. Also my friend is the chief lifegaurd in Perth and he does shark watch via chopper... He tells us there are sooo many sharks in WA Waters..

Flys are a massive problem here in WA its not even fly season yet but already they are bad especially on the farms where my UK friend is working to get her 2nd yr visa. The ONLY thing that seems to work is wearing a head net that covers all of your face.. You can buy them to slip over your hat, At least that will stop the little buggers going up your nose or in your ears. Can get them for under $2.00 at any red dot or bunnings. Good luck.. love reading your updates.
