Hi Guys,
Charly and I are devoted Melbourne fans too! We just wish we could get there sooner.
Heading for a final recce late this year or early next to decide on final location and general area that we fancy. I'm a coastguard here in the UK and am hoping to get into the waterpolice who do that kind of thing down under. Charly is a nurse and is still serving in the Royal Navy, I recently left. When she has done her time (another 18 months or so) we will be off as fast as we can!
Currently looking at the Point Cook area, but are open to wise and knowledgeable suggestions! We can be close to hospitals for her and not far from Williamstown for me, ideal.
Loving the PiO gossip and am hooked, just wish we could hurry up and be there.
Count us in to, hoping for Werribee area but depends on job location, want to be out there yesterday, but hubby thinks early 08. House already up for sale in anticipation. Got an interview booked for 11pm (UK) time this evening - Worried (yes). OMG

We are looking at the Mornington Peninsula, first choice Mount Eliza but may be priced out by the time we get there.
We would ideally like to be out there by the end of the year but we did only send the 136 visa app on Friday so more likely early 08.
Can't come soon enough.
Look forward to any get togethers.
Joanne :)
