3months for us and sounds like the norm. Quicker to get stuff oz to UK though! We paid for insurance and it was worth it.

Is your flight booked? Can't imagine having done this move with kids too. Good luck.

My parents address is near the school so I put their address as a postal address. Gave them my email address and Skype id. Then on my letter of application I explained I was in oz and when I was intending to be back for.

Yes very quick, once my OH puts his mind to it he made sure we got a booking with the movers. The weather here has been so much warmer than melbs. While I have been cooking three meals a day, OH transferred my pay as you go sim back onto contract , the sims arrived yesterday and now I can call people. Yay. Got a car on Monday night , our private plates which were on retention have been registered to the car. A friend has also leant us his car and got OH insured so we can use that too. Our car has a couple of scratches so we have already got it booked for the painter.so I will be free and mobile next week , yay. Nearly finished my preparation for the my lesson observation on Monday. Off to shops today to buy makeup! All in less than week.

We have flown and we have arrived. Got back for Thursday lunch. its all very surreal but my OH did nearly kiss the ground at the airport. Except for being exhausted from all the running around and the jet lag he actually is looking more like himself like when we first met. Before Australia idea was up put on the table. I'm glad we had a go at our adventure. No regrets.

Glad to be back but missing having my own car. Staying with in laws. So feel a bit stranded away from my parents although we have visited. Just wish they were a bit closer. Mind you at least we not in another country. . Waiting for our new phone contract to start next week then i can start making calls. Missing the few friends I made in melbs.

Packers coming tomorrow or should I say today.

Congratulations!

Thanks .

Hope the interview went well Geordee. The Skype kept freezing during the interview cos they used an iPad instead of a laptop /pc with webcam. It really does make a difference to the quality. Facetime is much better.

I fancy a veggie burger. Mmmmm will have to wait until we get to Dubai airport.
