milliem Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Some really good news from all you Guys:biggrin: Everyone's getting organised!!! Had lunch with OH's original Trainer today finalising paperwork for TRA - all completed now Thank God. Seeing our lawyer tomorrow to swear 3 Stat Decs and collect final translations of business registrations, then all I have to do is photocopy the lever arch file of papers and fly to UK on Friday to get certified and sent off to Oz - then the real fun begins, 12 weeks of waiting for a decision!!! Good luck C Girl Millie x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futureinoz Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 We have been working hard to get the house finished, has been on the rental market for 3 weeks, not one enquiry, so will need to chat to agent to find out how we can improve, or thinking of selling instead, and we all know how tought that is..oh what to do. Still so much to get rid of, its funny how you tidy up, then have to turn the whole place upside down to find what you thought you put in a safe place...ARGH!

Anika Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Seven Seas picked up our six boxes today, flat looks quite bare now. Only have internet and mobile phones left to cancel and tell the bank to send all mail to my parents address then we are pretty much sorted. Less than 6 weeks to go and then we're off :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milliem Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Dug my heels in the last few weeks and finally the second garden furniture set went for the right price. Got almost half what I paid for it 6 years ago :-) Now off to settle the last little balance of my Marks and Spencer credit card and will try not to buy anything else while I am there. Less than 8 weeks now and 35 days left at work and I am so excited!! Millie x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anniefrombath Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 This week I sold my sexy road bike, freecycled some wellies, a juicer, camping gear and one trumpet!! Getting the house ready to put up for sale - just getting bits about the place fixed to have the gaffe looking as sexy as possible for sale. Fingers crossed!!

TheGrahams Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Well, the packers are here! It has taken us so long to clean and sort everything and they are almost done packing and they have only been here 2 hours! Feels a bit weird to see everything boxed up but I can also feel the stress being replaced with excitment:biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BestyBlue Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 I love this thread, so much so that I was up past midnight yesterday reading everyone's responses. My husband & I am only in the very early stages of preparing for our move down under. Today I am attempting to write some more of my dissertation. I am sitting my final exams at uni in 8 months time, at which point we will officially get the ball rolling for the big move. Until then, I shall do a bit & leave a lot, throw in some much needed procrastination, as well as the occassional glance up at my pin board which is currently looking after our Get Me Down Under tickets for Leeds in November. We just need to keep our fingers crossed that my job will remain on the wanted list for long enough to get us out to Oz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
