Yeah thats what I was thinking, Dan wants to check out taz, but wants good weather as well..
with his career I think he can find work at either place.. I would like to go perth personally as we visited last year.
Thanks for your feedback

Slower pace of life and very beautiful. Tas has seasons unlike some states so yes it does get colder but nothing like the UK. Family say although hotter places appeal at first, the novelty wears off after a while and it's good to have seasons that are colder. Spoken to lots of people who moved here from Victoria for the same reasons.

Thanks for that
Whats it like for work out there? I am a beauty therapist, & reflexologist..
I think dan will be fine as he's a welder.
The weather still seems quite hot then? How cold does it get in winter?
Thanks for feedback
Chrissie

Welcome to PIO to Christine & Danny

My Ozzie OH reckons that Taz is the most like England as far as climate and appearance, of course they all still talk funny, so you will always remember where you are!

Thanks for that, I quite fancy perth really.. but have ordered an info pack on taz.
I liked the chocolate poem that came up on the bottom of your post, made me laugh.
Thanks for reply
