Hi Kellie,
It was really interesting to read your honest post.
My wife and I (and our 23 month old son) are about to go through all the same things you describe. <==== in fact everything you mentioned from bugs, to TV to renting/buying is on our minds. We are just being positive that we WILL make it work.
We have a fairly good life here; we live in Newmarket which we really like, near grandparents. We have good jobs and love our house and we're giving it all up on the idea of a better life in Australia!
We leave in exactly a month. Our house is on the market to be sold we we are hoping to complete asap.
We are doing it all because we think the quality of life will be better. Things like the outdoor lifestyle - our son loves being outside and we look forward to taking him to parks etc.
Can i ask what you and your husband do for work now / did in UK?
I think we're lucky as my wife's sister lives in Melbourne (which is where we're going).
We have full visa's but another reason we're doing it is because when my wife turns 32 we lose more points and then it becomes increasingly difficult. We would rather go and come back then to stay in England and always regret never going or trying.
Apologies there's not many questions above, and i know you wanted more from people already in Oz who have undergone same thing.
