Hi Al, We live in Melbourne and have done for 6 years. We're also considering moving back to UK to be close to family. We love the climate here and the beauty however we're still drawn to home especially after having a little girl. RE money, I originally transferred all my money from UK to Australia (silly me) and was never asked or expected to pay any tax. There is a double tax agreement between the two countries. The UK will not charge us tax on money we've already paid taxes on in Australia. Re selling, we only bought our house a year ago so we'll need to hold onto our place for a while as we'll most probably only get our money back on it. I also feel that if things don't work out in UK, we can always come back to UK and move into our home again. We wish you all the luck with your move. Laura & Lee
