Hubby is a tiler so hopeful he will get work. Dont know anyone there, seems crazy but hey if we dont try it we will never know. Any advice would be fab.
Thanks
Michelle
Hi Michelle, we lived in Biggera Waters for a few months, actually on the next street to where you're staying, and it's really nice. Only five minutes round the corner from there now. Three weeks should be enough time, we managed in 9 days to find somewhere. My kids are all under school age yet; Coombabah High will be the nearest high school, Biggera Waters Primary is supposed to be good if your youngest would still be in primary school?
Richard's a brickie, and there is a quite a bit of work about for tradies at the minute, I'm sure he'll be fine. There is so much building going on!
Hopefully see you soon anyway, let us know if you've any questions and I'll try my best.
Jo x

Glad you're coming Wendy, was worried you may be a bit rough! I'll do you a favour and drink all your booze for you though, so don't worry.
See you then,
