Hey from cold n wet Essex!

Hi All

Had a good look through this website and thought it looked such a friendly place!!
And a minefield of useful info!
So, this is us - hubby Ted has had his TRA approved, we have sponsorship from Ted's aunt in WA and we're just waiting on some of the paperwork to get here (Essex) and then the visa application goes in!
I'm Tracey, our son is Chris (15) and the more we look around the site, the more excited we get!! lol
We live in Essex, and after much badgering from friends who moved to Pac Pines with their two boys over 2 years ago, we finally went and visited in August this year - we were totally blown away and cannot wait to get to Australia!!!
My mantra at the moment is 'This time next year'!!! Let's hope I'm right!!!
We'll really enjoy getting to know everyone and are looking forward to being part of this forum - moral boosting needed along the way I'm sure!
Cheers

Hi guy's and to PIO, we are also from cold n wet Essex, have on oh word Croydon was just as bad. This site is very friendly and very informative, so any questions you may have just ask away.

Good luck with your application.

Welcome! You've definitely found the right place to come and share the good times and the bad (and the funny), and there's a huge amount of knowledge covering most aspects of the emigration process, so you can't go wrong. Just settle down at the pooter every night with your tea or Aussie wine and before you know it, it's bedtime (but you will have learned some interesting things).

Hi and welcome to PIO. The only problem I would say with this site is that it is sooooo addictive.

We are a family of 4 (two kids 7 and 3) but are going in convoy with my sister and her family and my mum. Hoping to move to Brisbane somewhere some time next year.

Hello the Randalls from us in sunny WA, the weather is lovely at the moment, we had alot of rain over the winter (much needed), but I was getting ready to ask for a refund!!
