    Hi all,

    Just a quick update, Wanted Down Under are coming back for a revisited filming on 11th and 12th April, exactly a year since they brought us over.

    My guess is it should be screened around January time again ;)

    Great, look forward to seeing it ! Shame I cant set my planner that far in advance :D

    Hope you are all still loving life and as happy as you sounded when you last posted!

    The PG household are despairing of me, I now have a notebook and when I watch Wanted Down Under which I do avidly whilst ironing , if I like the look of an area they visit when house hunting, be it in Oz or NZ I write it in my little black book......just incase it comes in handy one day ! The reality is it will probably never happen, but I can dream and it keeps me sane ish ! :)

    All I can say is google Secret Harbour my dear, you will tear up your notebook - no other location compares!

    I finally feel in control of my life! All my bills are scheduled and paid in full, we have an element of financial freedom which would never have been ours in the UK. All this with the beach on the doorstep and the weather on tap - I can't and never will complain. Australia has given me my family back amongst all the other riches we have gained:D.

    Just off for a quick nap before nightshift, 2 nights in charge of labour ward:eek:.

    Keep well and sane!

    What a fantastic heart warming message this is, it makes me and I'm sure many others realise there is a life after this debt marlarky.

    I am really made up for you that it has turned out to be everything you dreamt of and more.

    Thanks all !

    PG for what its worth NZ is supposed to be beautiful, but financially very challenging for a lot of people as far as I have heard. The living costs are high and salaries are low. Stick Aussie side my dear x
