      Im taking mine with me, cost me over £1k and its been worth every single penny, Im memory foam mad, even bought some memory foam slippers at weekend, pure pure heavan,

      Im ot worrying too much about bedding, if I can t find it in Aus you can always buy it on ebay uk and have it sent over, or something else for the family to bring when they visit! LOL

      I too am shipping my memory foam/pocket sprung/king size super duper bed; it's the one item I was gutted at the thought of leaving, it's about 3 years old but the best bed I've ever had! I hope it survives the trip!
