Guest Transcend Posted December 10, 2007 Posted December 10, 2007 Hi everyone! I can't believe we're actually flying out to Sydney on 4th Jan! It's all quite surreal!:err: Once we arrive we'll have to run around sorting stuff out & renting a longer term property before OH starts work on 14th Jan. We'll probably want some more clothes too as we've only got 20kg allowance each! Then the mission to find a school for the kids....but i guess we can't do much about that 'till they're back in February! Oh! We'd better buy some beds too! Once we're done with the first manic episode as immigrants (! tee hee!) it would be great to meet up with some friendly faces around the north sydney area for a few ice cold beers!:goofy: When will this all sink in?!............. X Katherine

Lynne2007 Posted December 11, 2007 Posted December 11, 2007 Hi Katherine, You deserve one too many when you get brill news hun, my Husband is 34, Daughter is 8 and son is 10 oh and dog is nearly 4. We are looking around the Wentworthville area or around them surrounding suburbs as we dont do city living. I am staying in a place called Linwood Lodge Motel when i land until i get a rental set up etc so going to be busy when i land. My Daughter is off school today as she got a temp of 39 Degrees C so hope she dont give me what she got before i go, Poor thing she is like an oven. I will be doing my final thread tonight or tomorrow night before i go to say goodbyes until i get there and get sorted and get internet up and running. Good luck with your move and hope to see you soon next year as they say :jiggy:
Guest Transcend Posted December 11, 2007 Posted December 11, 2007 Hi Lynne Your poor daughter! I do hope you don't get what she's got....and that it doesn't make your goodbyes any harder! Here's wishing you a palace in Wentworthville and all you plans falling into place with ease! See you next year! All the very best! X Katherine
Guest mutikonka Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 I work in Chatswood [live in the inner west]. If you want a few tips on the good watering holes of North Sydney once you're settled, let me know. I'm currently on holiday in China, back on 5th January. cheers Michael from Leeds

X Katherine Hi Katherine, Hope you are settling down to your new life in NSW Australia, I know you have only been here a short while and things are probably manic at the moment. I am Julie, I live in Easwood and have been living here now for 15 months, so if you have any questions let me know and I will try to answer them the best I can. Good luck with everything.
Guest lillypups Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 Hi Keith & Dawn, I am Julie and my husbands name is Paul, we live in Eastwood and have been living here for 15 months now. It didnt take us too long to get sorted and settled down, we enjoy the lifestyle and the great weather. I hope you are both settled in Chatswood. Did it take you long to settle in to the Australian way of life?
