<p><p>We are good thanks Kelly. Bought a house on 5 acres in Chidlow in the hills and love it <img src="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/smile.png" alt=":)" srcset="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Dan has just give his notice in at work and hes set up his own business doing stone and granite benchtops so its all exciting stuff! Im working at a wildlife sanctuary in Chidlow, its really laid back and nice people too. Where did you settle in the end? I hardly come on here anymore, just to keep up with stuff for my sister who still has her application in. Hope its going well for you - sent you a friend request on fb. Let me know how its going. Donna S xx</p></p>

<p>Bet things are frantic for you at the moment! You are certainly gonna have your hands full <img src="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/smile.png" alt=":)" srcset="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" /> did your hubby have any luck securing a job before you come over? Dan was lucky, he started work 3 days after we arrived. We got our mortgage approval this week so we are out on home opens this weekend. Weve also got andreas family (sebbers) coming up on sunday afternoon for bbq so should be good. What date do you fly over? Keep in touch, donna x</p>

<p>We are good thanks kelly - ive just started a pt job as a chiropractic assistant and we are looking at houses and hoping to buy soon. Missing the kids like mad, thank god for skype and facebook! Keep popping in to the forum as my sister still has an application in but shes cat 5 and its not movin too quick! Hope your family arecwell, bet the baby is growing so fast - any news on your move over? Keep in touch xx</p>

<p>Hi Kelly</p>

<p>Hope you are enjoying your trip. if you want to look out to the east, we are in mount helena, just off the great eastern highway past mundaring. we have just moved into our lovely rental up here and our furniture should arrive soon. drop me a pm if you want a look up, the sunday market is on at mundaring this weekend and we are going for our first look. Donna xxx</p>

<p>we are looking at property over in the perth hills - darlington to mount helena. we want the beach to still be a proper day out and you get much bigger plots with the house for the price. the tourist stuff is great - whiteman park and yanchep park were our favourites. </p>

<p>the suburbs were a little too built up for us, we arent used to neighbours so the hills suited us better. dan is working in malaga and i am applying for jobs in midland so the driving will be easier that the mitchell freeway which gets really busy at peak times. let us know when you arrive! xx</p>

<p><span>HAPPY VISA DAY KELLY AND FAMILY </span></p>

<p><span style="color:#ff00ff;">LOVE DONNA AND DAN XXXXXXXXX:wubclub::wubclub:</span></p>

<p>try to stay positive Kelly - its really crap I know but I also know it will be worth it in the end. we havent sold the house yet and only had a couple of viewers. our July trip will only be validation now but my daughter will be staying there - I am really not looking forward to leaving her there without us but she is excited and taking it all in her stride. your sunshine day will come soon and you wont be able to get rid of the silly grin for weeks once it does. sending you hugs and good vibes, Donna x</p>

<p>flying out to validate on 28th june and staying for a month - if we have sold the house, we will not be coming back!!</p>

<p>you heard anything yet??</p>

<p>woooooooooooohoooooooooo</p>

<p>Thanks Kelly - I am really looking forward to sending you the same message back.</p>

<p>One day when we are all sat around the barbie together havin a beer this will all seem so far behind us and we will not look back</p>

<p>Donna x</p>

<p>we sent everything co asked for but we have had another email today saying we need further evidence of our difficulty in getting Dan's son (non migrating) to be allowed to have a medical. we have sent the letter to school requesting the day off, an apology letter to the clinic for his failure to attend the appointment, a further request to the childs mum to allow him to undergo his medical - she just wont give permission or respond to us in writing. we have to see a solicitor tomorrow to see what we do next - I am sick of all these hurdles! I will keep you informed</p>

<p>Donna x</p>

<p>welcome back Kelly - hope you had a lovely break and a great xmas</p>

<p>Donna x</p>

<p>just seen your message to say you are offline for a while. have a lovely xmas - I hope we all get what we are waiting for before xmas! Donna x</p>

<p>got fingers crossed for all of us for a nice early xmas pressie x</p>

<p>got fingers crossed for all of us for a nice early xmas pressie x</p>

<p>wooooooohoooooooooooo!!!!!!</p>

<p>hey kelly - how are you? cant stay off the latest threads to try and find out what happens next. our status has changed to 'met' on our meds and pccs today so hopefully we haven't been completely mothballed - any movement on your status? eldest daughter finishes her college course in 4 weeks so desperate for news before then. Keep smilin, Donna x</p>

<p>daughter not finished her course yet and youngest not coming with us straight away - still waiting to see what happens next...... Donna x</p>

<p><strong><span>wwwwwwwwwwooooooooohhhhhhhhhoooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</span></strong></p>

<p>getting a bit worried - my 20 year old finishes her level 3 college course in october which means she will no longer be classed as a student - hope stuff has moved along before then. how about you - i think you were planning on going before us</p>

<p><span>no - nothing else yet. to be honest we arent looking to move over til this time next year with my youngest being at college and i have a management qualification i need to finish. gives us plenty of time to sell the 2 houses we have to sell (hopefully). I will just be happier to have the full visa grant before they move the goal posts again! have you done all your checks - when are you planning on going over once granted?:chatterbox::chatterbox:</span></p>
