Hi, Nice to know someone else is going to Mackay. We got our visas 21/02/06 and are going to be arriving in Mackay at the end of May/early June. We are like yourselves so much to do but so little time. How old are the girls? We have a 13 year old daughter who at the moment is a little uneasy about the move. Are your visas business(457) or residential. We have 457 visas. Would like to share any info with yourselves and wish you all the best.

Maybe hear from you soon.

Dave, Anita and Charlotte :D :D :D

G'day,good to see you trying out the local lingo!
Have you decided on where abouts in Mackay you will be living,we arn't sure yet, Dave will be working in the CBD so we will be initially looking at renting in south Mackay untill we get settled. Have you looked at schools for the girls, we haven't found much information on them at present. Are you going to be online at the other end? If we don't speak to you before you go, hope you have a bonza leaving party and a safe journey to your new home.

Speak to you soon

Anita, Dave and Charlotte 8) 8) 8)

Hi Michelle,

We are also trying to sell our house but have had no luck yet. It is good to know that there are a few other people going to Mackay. Do you have jobs to go to or are you going to look when you get there? If there is any info we can share please let us know and we will help if we can.

Dave , Anita and Charlotte :lol: :lol: :lol:
