Hopefully it won't be too much longer for you now.
Can't help with licence for chippies.................my oh is a brickie and he doesn't have one.
If your tv is fairly new and has a PAL switch on it you should be fine, other wise you get the picture but no sound!!
Good luck.
Lesley

Dobbsy Family is on a distinguished road
Hello -

just to introduce ourselves - we are Caroline and Mark with 3 daughters Caitlin 6. Eleanor 4 and Lydia 2 and come from Bedfordshire. We are only at the beginning of our application journey - its taken a long time for us to finally make the decision that Oz will be a better place to raise our girls!! The prospect of leaving family and friends on the other side of the world is killing me though!! We are looking at a move to Brisbane - possibly Redlands area - heard lots of good things about it - but don't know alot about other areas yet. Any suggestions of other good suburbs in terms of schools and family orientated would be much appreciated!!
Have read lots on forum but only just plucked courage up to join 2nite!!
Caroline x

Tvs

Hi
Tvs do work in Oz....but if it doesn't you just buy a set top box (around $50) and then it's all fine!
Good luck with everything
Karen
