At last it's our turn been a long time coming but well worth the wait,we fly out of Sydney late tomorrow night to Taipei then onto Bangkok & then to Amsterdam & then finaly into Heathrow 47hrs thats not counting any delays & getting to the airport this end

But before i go i just wanted to upload this video (im having troubles so will use a link if i can to click) of the Central Coast NSW where we have lived, each name is a place here like watanobbi mooney mooney & those that know the area i hope will find it quite funny i sure do.

So everytiime i watch this video when im back home i know it will bring a smile to my face & remind me of the good times we had in Oz :wink:

Thankyou all for your answers

14 hrs is plenty to do one of the organised sightseeing trips to see the Temples etc...........we did this last year & really enjoyed it :biggrin:

No as i mentioned in my original post as its only 14hrs we can not leave the airport so no sight seeing trips pf temples etc

Yes ive been to Shanghai....... much eaiser when i fly via Kulala Lumper.......my ticket says Taiwan Taoyuan Intl airport Taipei so i guess its an island off china but owned by china has anyone been there ?????? lol

Can anyone tell me if you can go onto facebook in Taipei (China) reason i ask is we are there for 14hrs this weekend & as its only a certain length of time we will not be able to go out of the airport area (we are in a hotel on the airport site) now i know they have laws etc about facebook twitter youtube etc & i don not fancy being locked up for violating their laws............... any help appreciated please i have searched the internet & get contradicting replies :arghh:

Thankyou all for your kind comments, i wish you all the very best of everything if your staying here in Oz or waiting for your journey home too :hug:

Hi, rental costs in Sydney are rather expensive have a peek on http://www.realestate.com.au as to foxtel/broadband/landline go for a bundle often the cheapest way we had a bundle 50GB (bigpond elite liberty) for adsl 2 which included fox channels platinum value pack 2 x fox boxes & budget phone calls $200 a month plus any additional calls this was all via Telstra - 2nd hand cars here are alot more expensive than in the uk so shop around & often the best bargain will be someone who is returning to the uk or elsewhere & has a car to sell. I think food/bedding/clothes etc is more pricey than the uk the only thing i think that is cheaper is fuel & smokes.

Mobiles are a rip off not many companies roll over the minutes etc i think virgin have provided us with the best deal hubby was on a business pack & used his own phone so he was not tied into a contract.

Hope this is of some help

:biggrin:Yaaaaaaaa we are almost on our way only 10 more sleeps to go. Removals went last week of June & we are now in a holiday rental, hubby finishes work next tuesday & then we have a few days to unwind before we fly on Saturday the 28th

Never thought this time would come have been waiting for so so long, can't begin to tell you how excited we are

Its so sad i really feel for the family, i remember when the little blonde lad Ben Needham went missing from the greek island of Kos
