Flights Booked - No turning Back Now!

Hi all,

Well after a real search we finally have the last four seats on the plane!

We fly from Heathrow on 13th Jan at 22.05 with Singapore airlines, get to singapore at 18.45 then leave singapore at 21.00 land at melbourne at 07.15 on the 15th Jan.

After all the rushing around at the end of last week I still don't think it's sunk in......

We now have bank accounts to set up and transfer money, If you can think of anything else please post as you can proberly know or imagine my heads in bits LOL(blonde too ha)

Love
Ally

ps good luck to all those waiting I'm sure you'll get there, it's just round the next bend!

Hi there Rachel, our friends are there so they will be picking us up from the airport and were staying with them in Mount Martha for two weeks until we find a house.

Thanks for asking

Love

Oh that sounds wonderful!! It's pretty near the coast there isn't it, you're getting there at just the right time I think!!

We'll be out East when we get there. Will be looking at rentals in Croydon/Mooroolbark/Lilydale as they have handy transport links to the TAFE where Stu will be studying.

Have a great time and let us know what it's like on the other side!!

Rache
