  1. Hi, Try www.ozhouserental.com. I know of a few people who have used them with no complaints. Becky
  2. Hi, my lil one has dairy and egg allergies too.She's only 3 and has never liked dairy free dark chocolate. This year i've found a dairy free egg online (UK) that claims to be 'milk' chocolate so hoping this will appeal to her. It won't taste like Cadburys to me but she has never tasted proper chocolate!! x
  3. Just wanted to say I'm thinking of you. And try not to make any rash decisions. You've got time on your side and it's very early days. I know it will be hard with child care but things may work out! Been on my own with a kiddie and it isn't easy anywhere!! Bex x
  4. BIll Bryson A walk in the woods on my Kindle. Don't know how i've missed reading it before as i love his books! I loved Down Under and i've had a couple of embarassing snorty moments in the coffee room at work laughing while reading this one! :-)
  5. Hi Spencer, Our 176 visa was granted 5 days after our medicals, and there was a weekend inbetween! The whole process moved a lot faster than i thought it would!! Becky
  6. Hi, We had medicals in December including our 2 year old and 14 month old. All the doctor did was listen to their hearts and chest and just a very basic physical check. The little ones head was measured and he asked a few questions but i think they saw enough just from watching them play. There didn't seem to be a formal assessment of any milestones and especially with your very little babies they are all different anyway. Don't worry, it will be very simple! Becky
  7. Hi We just scanned the bank statements and uploaded them. If our CO wanted to run a scam i think he had enough info to go on anyway ie birth certs, passports, addresses and utility bills! He gave us a visa though :biggrin: But i don't know what anyone else did. Beck x
  8. If you fancy Zumba there seems to be plenty of classes in the area, try zumba.com to search for Rockingham. I'm not there yet but keen to keep it up if we move!! Bex
  9. Congrats FB, we got ours too! What an amazing feeling! Been to work today trying not to smile like a loon too much! Our timeline is below. Bex
  10. Bingo: We live on the Isle of Man and Manchester is our nearest panel doc so had to be the plane (which is slightly better than the boat!). Shame you are both still waiting, you could have had a great weekend celebrating! We'd like to head to WA, haven't got a definite area, it will probably depend on job offers but we like the sound of Rockingham or Mandurah and if we could get work somewhere further south like Bunbury looks nice too. We will have to do a bit more research on schools/activities if we get the visa granted. How about you Helene? Bex x
  11. Hiya, What a day!! We were up at 4.45am, bounced around on a plane with two littlies and a teen , had our meds done and then bounced back home again this evening and we're still standing! You were right Helene and Bingo, they were fine. I thought they would be much more involved so hopefully everything will be fine. We will wait and see what happens now, you two must be any day now!! :biggrin: Bexy
  12. Helene73, Aw hon, it must be frustrating for you now. Did you email to see if everything was in order? We have our meds tomorrow and then we'll be waiting too. Lodged 26/9/11 so you're still ahead of us!!
  13. Thanks bingo, I'll make sure I remember those passports! We need them for ID on the flight anyway. Glad to hear you're getting sorted, you should hear by Christmas now. Any chance of a refund from your agent seeing as they weren't very good? even a partial one as a goodwill gesture? Bex
  14. Thanks for your replies, we will make that one of our priorities if we make it over. It's not very nice to think about but I would hate for our two girls to be left in limbo. We haven't got a huge family but they will be there for them if the worst happened. Bexy x
  15. Just a hypothetical question! I've read some of the sticky thread about what happens to the kids if one of you want to go back to the UK. There was a mention of what would happen if something awful happened to both parents but I didn't see a definitive reply. In our case, there would be no relatives in Oz to care for our two littlies. So, would their grandparentsor aunties be able to take them back to the UK or would there be some sort of legal case to contend with. Obviuously we would want the best for them which would be to be with their closest relatives but do we need to draw an agreement up legally once we settle in Oz? Bexy x
