DR Moving to Oz

I did think about going walk about but it will be night time and i'm already worried about missing my connecting flight. so i think i will be watching the board for 10 hours

Your never too old to enjoy life, I'm 41 in march and i am flying out the day after tomorrow to start a new life from scratch. If it's what you want to do GO FOR IT

I am going to have an 10-11 hour stopover in Dubai, what currency will i need while i'm there and is it expensive. How much should i take to fill my time.

Thank's Hoff, Hope it all work's out for you as well.

I will do my very best, Thank you

Thank's for the tip, i don't think they like the taste of me. I rarely get bitten even when everyone around me get's eaten alive.

Thank you all for your kind word's of support. See you all down under, and good luck to all who are going or coming back.

4 days to go and counting, i will be beginning my journey at this time. Exited but nerve's going a bit now.

Thank you Britchikx

And will be heading back down to Melbourne next year for a weekend at the f1

Hi Munchkinella, I will be heading to Griffith Nsw.

I'm not shipping anything. And i will bring a coat(only to use when i holiday in England) I am a fair few miles from Melbourne, That was just the best option to drive from (i think).

So same applies as with other spiders then. AVOID. lol

Are the poisonous?

looking forward to it, Just in time for summer as well. Gutted to miss the windscreen scraping though. haha

Well that's it my flight is booked and i'm off, I will be flying from Birmingham to Melbourne next Thursday with a 9h 50mins stop over in Dubai. Then i have hired a car for a 4.5 hour drive to my final destination. Thank you all for you advise through the whole process of applying for the visa and booking of flights, without all the good help and advise off the nice people on PIO i think i would have found it a lot harder and probably gone mad. So thank you all. Good luck to all who are in the process and hope all you dreams come true. I will still be around to offer my experiences to others that are in need of any help (if i can). Thank you all again and good luck. See you soon Daren R

Good luck in your new life

By flight centre do you mean airport or am i being daft

Thanks for all the advise, i can't go on the 31st i wont finish work till about 4:30 then to Heathrow is a couple of hours drive. If it was Birmingham that's 20 mins

That is sounding promising

I'm going to Sydney Melbourne or Canberra all are about the same distance to where i will be going

Thank's Nickachu, Yes tried them but every time i find a good flight i click on it and the price goes up by £200
