    Ok!

    I'm about to phone OH to see if he can get the day off and if so I'm buying tickets for the expo!

    It's not like we have a fantastic life here or that we've got shed loads of family we'd miss if we moved. Both sets of parents are dead, the only people we'd miss is middle 'child' (who we rarely see anyway) and OH's sister and her family who again, we rarely see.

    I've registered with the 'Bob in Oz' website cos he deals with loads of stuff about how to move your dog.:rotfl:

    Love the priorities i.e. how to move your dog:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.

    Hope you manage to go, we never went to one but I hear they have loads of great information all in one place which will be a great place to start:D.

    Right I'm supposed to be Gumtreeing and eBaying, so should move my a$$ off here, do some housework and get started. Being a good girl and have already been for a run along the beach this morning :D. On the diet bandwagon before Wanted Down Under come back in April ;).

    Well I guess gargrave will just have to remain poster girl all by herself. I've been seriously looking into the subject of emigrating and phoning places for advice and it seems OH's job was on the 'wanted' list at one time but isn't now so we have zilch chance of getting over that way.

    I'm strangely disappointed. Perhaps subconsciously I was more into the idea than I was letting on.

    Oh well. It'll just need to be a holiday at gar's after all then. :rotfl:

    The "wanted list" changes on an almost monthly basis, don't give up just yet. Keep a beady eye on it:).

    Also quite often, the jobs you can be sponsored by the state for also change their lists - worth a watching.

  • Just wanted to drop in and say its so lovely to hear how you are doing !

    So very pleased that life is treating you well, you are all so happy and have savings in the bank. Thats fantastic.

    I would love to jump ship, although think I will bring Skint with me, she wont mind sleeping in a tent Im sure :D Maybe in a few years you may find us knocking on your door.Mr PG is definitely up for it, pretty sure without checking the list that careers wise we may be on the "wanted" list !

    Keep the piccies coming when you have time Julie, they are great to see.

    Looking forward to revisited in April. x
