Good question, I don't want to but think we may have one sprung on us. :o

Well we have been trying to get a do sorted but it seems there is so much more to worry about, only 4 weeks and 3 days until we go

I want one too, but my hubby also thinks we should save our money. It would be lovely if someone did it for us... I doubt anyone will though.

No Big dos for me, little one no babysitter. Will probably do lunch with the guys from work and visits with friends.

Not sure what will happen with the parents, they will have probably stopped talking to me by then and mother be in the asylum!

Hi everyone,

We are definitley having a leaving do !! my husband thought it was a waste of money :roll: ,but after explaining that we may not see some of our friends and family for quite a few years and it doesnt have to be that expensive!! :twisted:
(thats what he thinks ha ha !!) he came to my way of thinking.
I just thought having lots of friends and family in the same room having a great time dancing and getting drunk,will give me something to smile about when im feeling abit homesick !!!

I've just spotted this thread....I posted one on the very same topic in news & gossip...sorry didn't mean to duplicate.

I think a party is probably the way to go to ensure you get the chance to say goodbye to everyone as it would take ages to get around to each person individually. We're also probably going to have to do something for our 3 year old to say goodbye to her friends but not sure what that will be yet. Any excuse for a party though.

Not sure what to do either :? - would like a party to say goodbye - like steph don't think that anyone would do this for us. Then I think of the cost and that it would probably be a couple of weeks rent in Aus. Also, it'd be very emotional and I'm a bit of a coward - may say my goodbyes and shed my tears with friends individually.

We were planning one, even had the venue booked. We now think it would be better to save the cash for when we get there.
