TheGrahams Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Been cleaning, cleaning and cleaning! Removals come in 3 weeks today, only have a few kids free days, hubby only has a few days off work and in between all of this we have a big leaving party, my aunts funeral (have to travel from Cornwall to Birmingham and back!) and our eldest son's 6th birthday to deal with! :err: Oh well, flights and accommodation all booked, we have even got a annual pass to the gold coast theme parks!:ssign19: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Suzi Wong Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Sitting among piles of boxes, ready to move into rented accommodation tomorrow. Still awaiting results of medicals and hopefully visa grant shortly. Getting quite excited that I may be able to hand in my notice in my super stressful job soon. It's all becoming very real, scary but exciting too. Everything crossed meds not referred for any reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candygirl Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Got an email from DIAC confirming we now have a case officer for our 190 visa application, and have booked our medicals for 3rd September! Wow that was quick. Good Luck with the Meds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milliem Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 A wardrobe, chest of drawers and dining room table and chairs all gone to a friend in need today. My house is starting to look bare in places. I am now driving a very fetching ford fiesta on loan from the sales garage. I haven't driven a shift stick transmission for at least ten years.:eek: Haven't stalled it yet but it's taking some getting used to. Great little runner though so might go for a small economical car in Oz. Waiting for a master upholsterer to come and completely take apart the 9 foot sofa so I can get it out of my house and then reassemble it in the house of another friend in need. It took them 6 hours when I moved in here. I bought two smaller ones to take to Oz about a year ago which are still in their packets. Tomorrow I will be dismantling the large wardrobes to sell and replacing with a couple of hanging rails for essential clothes. Already packed most of my dresses for shipping. I am trying to get most of it out of the way now because back to work next week and the Ofsted visit is imminent. Onwards.....

Perthbum Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I will go first! Over the weekend we did a bit of a clear out and I have taken the rubbish to the skip. It doesn't look like not much but along with other DIY rubbish it filled my Suzuki to the brim!! :cute:[ATTACH=CONFIG]10957[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]10958[/ATTACH] Is that a real car.?

derham Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Booked another holiday villa in Butler for 2 weeks, we have one booked in Waikiki for 23 days but don't think this will give us enough time to find a long term rental (more money). Just going out to change some pounds in to AUD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
