    Thanks Bex - that's good to know....my OH is teaching out there at the moment and Im very tempted to join her in a couple of years (long story). Going out there in April for 2 weeks and again in July/August for 6 weeks, so I'm looking forward to seeing what it's like. OH is really enjoying it.

    If I do go out there I need to have a qualification that would get me a job, as I'm only doing office work at the moment.
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    Jerry gets me every time. And yes, Mike's brother.
