Nearlythere1 Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Hi, Some have advised to get things like references for housing and jobs sorted and car Insurance no claims discount confirmation sorted prior to leaving. Also, have been advised to get eyesight and teeth checked out as it's apparently very expensive.. Can't confirm any of this as we don't leave for another 53 days 16 hours and 32 mins (not counting though).. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shellyk666 Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 How about enquiring about school or kindy for any children? Along with ensuring you have their up to date immunisation records (which were required when we applied for a Kindy and a school place in Perth). We've booked a hotel the night before our flights so it's not such an early start the next morning and we've booked mini-buses to take us due to all the luggage. Make sure you've got suitable and enough luggage for the amount of kgs you get. We've also got a diary and have put in things like deadlines for giving notice on contracts like mobile phones, council tax, Sky TV, car insurance etc That's all I can think of right now. We've got 6 weeks to go and I keep on thinking I've forgotten about something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmckin14 Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 Thanks Shelly no kids yet so don't have those worries yet!!But good thinking about cancelling g all the contracts I'm going to have to invest in a diary for all the important dates!! I guess I have 4 months of thinking I've forgotten something to look forward to then! im sure we'll all be grand as long as we don't forget our passports lol good luck with the move. Let us know how you get on :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
