[Guest abeattie]

Hi All,

 

Not been on for a while now, moved to Melbourne from Wales Nov 05, got hubby settled into work and kids into school (Rhiannon 14 & Rhys 10).

 

Love living here but, miss friends and family :roll:

 

Havn't managed to find work for myself yet but, still trying :roll:

 

We live in the western suburbs, does anyone want to meet up for a drink sometime and share experiences ???

 

Got to go for now hopefully have someone to chat to soon. :shock:

Hi Angie,

 

My name is Sam and my husband is Lee, we have only just moved over here from Weymouth in Dorset. We arrived just a week ago so all is very hectic still as you well no! I was just remembering how good this site was in England for info and thought i'd try it out here now ive finally found a library with net!

 

So how have you found things so far? We have only seen a little so far but looks good. We are in the eastern suburbs.

 

I miss my family and friends already i'm hoping it will get easier given time.

 

Any way when we are a bit more settled it would be great to meet up. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi Ange and Sean

 

We are moving to Melbourne in June, very excited, I hope it is all you dreamed it would be.

I guess missing friends and family are my main concern, but will not miss the UK.

 

Will contact you when we arrive

 

Take Care

hi,

 

We are waiting for our pre grant letter and are moving to Melbourne soon (hopefully) we're also moving to the western suburbs (point cook).

 

We are very keen to get a good social life going when we get over there and would love to meet up with fellow poms.

Hey Angie.. We're hoping to move to the western suburbs too and have a 14 year old girl and a 10 year old boy (the 18 year old is staying here for uni). We are thinking of moving to Point Cook or Sanctuary Lakes... do you know them? How have you found it all so far? Which suburb are you living in?????

[Guest stephanielouise981]

Hi Krista,

 

I'm not in Australia yet but my Mum lives in Point cook. I was there feb/march this year and I loved it. It's a really lovely area and you get so much for your money there too. It's got a great little shopping centre and is also fairly close to a larger one with plenty of good shops. Plus, it's not far from the city.

 

I think there are a few brits living there.

Hi Tom

 

Nick is hoping to get set up by himself, but at the moment he has been working for a large contractor 15 mins down the road, work can be a bit hit and miss, but once you get in with the right people you will be fine, hang in there, when are you heading out.

Hi Mo

 

Only started my application one month ago. I've got an emigration company sorting things out for so i'm hoping they will be able to move things along quicker than if i did it myself, and for what they charge i hope they do.
