Guys thank you all so much for your replies... Your experiences sound fantastic. A lot to consider and think about. We are lucky in that we know each others families very well, and for me I have lived elsewhere from home for years without as much as emails or the odd phone call... I think that's why I'm so accepting to the move. But Snifter you are correct I do need to be more practical as I am very blown away with the stories of the amazing lifestyle and weather we can possibly have. Oh and funny thing about PC, we looked at a ton of houses and found this lovely one and very drawn to it before I found Pomsinoz and realised years the mini Briton. Though also I agree, I would much rather integrate than isolate... Keep them coming

This year is a big year... I am marrying the love of my life, naturally, who is a British born Australian Citizen. We will be moving to Melbourne later this year after getting married and it seems the natural place for most Brits is Point Cook and/SL's, where we have been looking and have our hearts set on an amazing 4x2... Fingers crossed. Anyhow... The whole point to this is that I have read quite a lot of negative experiences of Families picking up sticks and moving 10k miles to Oz, some mixed and not so many positive... However I was hoping to find people who have married an Australian and moved out there... Hoping to hear of their experiences, good or bad, and how they find the support system from the partners family etc etc My partner and I will be on 95k a year with zero children and two turtles, hopefully with a car possibly two but I have heard this is almost extortion in Oz, living in PC & working in the CBD. Look ok forward to hearing about your wonderful experiences

Hi all, just a quick hello... Marrying and moving to Oz this year and can imagine will be on here a bit :GEEK: Will be getting your advice soon. Thanks in advance. Andy
