WelcomeIf you are new to Poms In Oz and migrating to Australia or currently living in Australia feel free to say hi to all the other either in or moving to Oz.
hi Everybody, my names alli and i'm hoping to move to Oz in a couple of years with The Boy, (my other half by the way) replied to this thread because i'm a student nurse and was wondering what the chances are of getting a graduate position? I'm getting so many conflicting views! Good luck with your application pippadee! Whereabouts are you moving to?:laugh:
Hope you dont have to wait tooo long now Pippadee........... it'll all be worth it the end !!!!
p.s. Nothing to do with Oz I know but my Mum used to buy all my clothes from Pippadee (a clothing party plan company from the 70's), when I was a kid....., is it still going I wonder????? Does anyone else remember them???? Sorry im waffling now, but it brought back a few memories............
Hiya
I remember Pippadee, my mom bought my sister and me orange stripey swimsuits from there, we had them for years.
Dont know if they're still going though (pippadee not the swimsuits!):confused:

Welcome to PIO.
My mum was a PippaDee lady and me and my sister had everything, including those horrible blue nylon stripey nighties they used to sell!!
My dad had the dressing gown to match our nighties infact!!
Good luck with it all.

i remember pippadee - remember it being a club type thing like ann summers but without the sexiness!!!! but sadly don't remember any of their clothes.
anyway welcome to pio and long may you be a member. ask away with the questions cos you know somebody will always have the answer - bit like having your very own fairy godmother really - with a puff of smoke magically the answer appears before you..... or some'at like that!!!!

Can u believe it , got a letter to from ANMC , saying that they need a new verification request from the NBWA as the 1 i sent has now expired !!!! that because they have taken so long to process my application. So i guess that going to take another month or so .
