<p>Hi.,., dont worry, i imagine you have your hands full.,.,.,</p>

<p> </p>

<p>IELTS - yep, did it in Liverpool which is more local to Manchester and much better conditions then Middlesex. [no 4 hours drive and hotels etc.!! ha]</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Our plan was to travel around for the first 3 months to weigh everything up. (weve already backpacked the coast in 2004 and suppose wanted to re-live a bit of the magic).</p>

<p> </p>

<p>I currently have a 176 application lodged and am a bit releuctant to swap for an employment visa in case it falls through and i lose my postioning (if thats how it works - i`m just speculating)</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Also - The neighbour has his house up for sale (6 months now) and not had many viewings, even tho mines better (haha) the timing i dont think is right for a decent sale... </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Although the above said - I think i should make my agent work for her money and seek her advice and help table options given the employment sponser route - Who knows!?!</p>

<p> </p>

<p>in the mean time - its save save save!</p>

<p>Wow - that didnt take long. Just thought i`d be nosey and see where your status was currently at, and what this I see, Visa AND landed accross the Big Pond.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Last time we spoke was about the bloody IELTS tests. (Now I bet that seems a distant memory along with the VETASSES queries.)</p>

<p> </p>

<p>I`m stuck here in the good old CAT 5 - Non CSL category.,.,., How time is dragging, but doesnt mean i cant wish you all luck!</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Hope all goes to `plan`..... (No pun intended).... Enjoy the sun and life downunder!</p>

<p> </p>
