Hi guys, I'm back after living four years in Perth! First place I turned to for looking a options for parents to move out here. I have heard that the last remaining relative is not longer around? That the CPV is really the main option. Great to be logged back on and seeing this site go strength to strength. ?

God there are a few of us oldies around, wow new babies too, congratulations!!! Its mad looking at the difficult time we all had trying to get visas, and now we are here, life just goes on! We were so focused on getting to Oz, think we forgot to live along the way. Now i can say we are living, still think you need to have a goal, but no way as big as the move for our family!! Granted our living maybe someones way of not living, as we go the park for leisure, not big lunches or nights out lol. We are looking forward to exploring OZ this year, hopefully the pace for our family will slow down and as finances get better, when i return to work we will be able to explore little further. Think i have aged so much in one year!! ( Could be sun damage lol) This year has put a lot into perspective and what is important to us. Its our family unit, whether here or anywhere else. Corny i know, but it is to us. We are not planning to move anywhere else, as those things no longer matter bigger house, more money etc. Are enjoying the simple pleasures now. And of course our new addition is hilarious, he keeps us all entertained. xx

Hiiiiiiiiii Been a while Well, what a year in Perth! After arriving with my 7 week old baby, yes i finally received my visa and just before i left for maternity leave. It has been a challenging year for my family. Arrived in April and unfortunately my health took a turn for the worse, all ok now but a lot to do with new baby and migrating took its toll. I had to make an unexpected journey back to the UK on my own with my baby due to losing my father suddenly in June. So a very difficult start. However we are finally getting on track, hubby has plenty of work and i have gone back to uni, to do my Grad dip in Primary teaching. I have been fortunate to be able to stay at home with my son who is now 15 months, something we could not afford to do if remained in UK. I plan to teach part time next year and we are looking at buying our first home in OZ. I have a casual job, which pay is fab as you get 20% extra loading for casuals so i will work one weekend a month. We have been extremely busy making new friends and i have started my own playgroup. Nice to be back, love the new layout sharon, a very faithful old member lol x

<p>My health has taken a knock though really struggled with baby breastfeeding had thrush for four weeks masttits but perserved because wanted to be able to feed him here in oz especially for the flight. All that time i was suffering from extreme fatige and aching all over, put it down to moving, baby emotional stuff. I mean we slept on air beds for 8 weeks lol. Thats bound to make u ache. However went to docs here in oz they screened for everything turns out i have an overactive thyroid, i need to see a specialist and have a scan, if i need medciation will have to decided to give up breastfeeding. keep in touch let me know how getting on with visa sharon xxx</p>

<p>Hi Shaz, </p>
<p>How you getting on with your new little one? Thought I would let you know that our one arrived on the 8th March! He weighed 3600g which is about 7lb 14 oz and we have called him Alfie... He is adorable and so good I have to keep reminding myself I have a new baby in the house!</p>
<p>Hows things going with your organising getting to Oz? Is your visa all sorted out now?</p>
<p>We can now start getting ours moving again. Just waiting to sort out little Alfie's passport and then we have to do our meds again as they run out this week! </p>
<p>Anyway, hope you are keeping well, Best wishes, Tasha x</p>

<p>Hi Shaz, congratulations on the birth of your little one, thats great news! Glad you have everything sorted now and can really get organised!</p>
<p>I went into premature labour a couple of weeks ago and have been in hospital whilst they try and stop the contractions. They managed to slow me down and have let me out of hospital for now. The medication I was on has stopped now so just waiting to see what happens next! I am meant to be on complete bed rest, which is what I have been doing, but am now going crazy not getting my fix of PIO and knowing whats going on lol... so am on here for a short time to catch up before the MIL catches me and sends me back to bed (haha).</p>
<p>Speak to you again soon, Tasha x</p>
