Look out Australia....

...cos here we come!!!!

Sorry haven't been around for a few weeks, guys. It's been TOTALLY manic over here, what with housing and feeding an army of extended family (my aunt needed to come over to Singa to remove a growth from her ovary - completely benign, thank god - so the rest of the family had to come too), then I had to act as representative for my parents whose condo has just been released and wait for large sums of money to be transferred into my account and hope that I wouldn't be pulled in from the bank for 'suspicious activity', plus buying and packing to spend Christmas back in freezing England

Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that, amidst all this craziness, my OH got THE email yesterday that says that WE GOT OUR VISA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a nice early Xmas pressie - I think we bloody well deserve it! So will keep you all posted on what happens next when we get back from Old Blighty.

Merry Christmas PiOs!!

MWAH XX

Thanks guys!

Thank you for the congrats and kind words, guys. It's really nice to feel part of a web community where everyone is working towards the same goal and that we can all support each other, listen to our frustrations and celebrate that golden ticket!

Now we're rooting for everyone who's still waiting and hope that Santa brings you all a little Xmas cheer!

Merry Xmas guys.

Congratulation on your visa - double celebrations this Christmas then, I mean Christmas is eat, drink and be merry isn't it - now you have even more reason!

Just a word of warning - rooting for everyone will have a totally different meaning once you get here!!

Already here! Got here on Wednesday afternoon. Brrr, it's FREEZING!!

Not sure about when we make our move to Oz, depends on when one of us finds a job!
