ali Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Cal is a bit backwards in coming forwards and really won't advertise that she will have short term accommodation available for new arrivals to Brisbane. So if you're going to be new to Brissy and in need of somewhere to stay, help and advise PM her. Ali Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will add the info to the Gold Coast arrivals list. I was thinking that it might be a good idea to add a page for anyone who is on shore who has a trade or business that could help others. I know that u mentioned it was had to get anyone to do work etc. Maybe would have to put a disclaimer that we do not vouch for anyones work haha. Good Luck hope it all goes well and its a fab idea, if we werent going to family I would def use this kind of service. Em x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PaulnLisa Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Hiya all, We are staying with Cal in August and I've got to say she has been such a star already, nothing is too much trouble and she has actively encouraged us to ask her whatever we need to know (as we have never been to Oz before, believe me, there is loads we need to know!) So I can honestly say we would highly recomend her and we're not even there yet!!! So good luck with it all Cal and we'll see you on 6th August:yes:Counting down and just can't wait to get there:jiggy: Lisa x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 If i didn't have somewhere to stay when we come out to Brisbane i would have come to you guys. I don't know you but after reading the posts on hear you have give great advise to lots of folk. i would have thought this will soon become a full time job for you. I know if i need any advise when i get out to OZ with anything i know i could just ask you for help and you would be there. Hope this makes sense all the best Tracey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The Greens Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 this is such a good idea. Its always nice to deal with people you have heard of or know and even though I don't know you personally i think through this site it's like knowing you. So if we decide on Brisbane I'm sure we will look you up. Good luck with this venture, hope you do really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tahe49 Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Hi Cal What a great idea, you are in the best position to help and advise because you have actually done it. There appears a definate niche in the market so welll done for setting it up. If and when I get my visa we are heading for Brissie so may take you up on that offer.

Guest PaulnLisa Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Wow Cal VIP eh! Does that mean Gary will turn up wearing a chauffeur suit and hat:biglaugh: Glad to hear it will be warming up when we arrive, I know I'm gonna sound sad but do you think I will need to put my dressing gown in my suitcase or can I put that in our container!! Sad question i know but I don't want to be freezing first thing in the morning!! Lisa x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest michele'n'michael Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Hi Cal also has been a gr8 help to me. The rental idea is filling a total gap in the market(you wise cookie!!) It's something I definately will consider if when we come on a reccie at Xmas we find Jimbooba is an area for us, we may even look you up Cal!! Looking to relocate in that radius May next year.
