Probably a daft question, but is it worth shipping a tumble dryer over for use in the winter months? Sent from my Redmi Note 7 using Tapatalk

Yeah - that's the plan Pegg, just hope it doesn't take too long once we're out there. I'm keeping an interested eye on the exchange rate!

Thanks Ali - We'll do that.

I was wondering if any of the kind nurse types on here could take a look at my OH's CV and give us some pointers on how to improve it for Oz? Possibly @ali ? I've read through a few old threads but any fresh advice on job hunting would also be great. She's got lots of years ICU experience, the last two of which as a Junior Sister (Clinical Nurse?). Thanks

Cheers Rossmoyne. Everything seems to be lining up for January. We'll just have to prepare for being out of work until things pick up.

Thanks for that Ali.

Looking likely to be end of January when we move over. So on the cons side it'll be the middle of summer and scorching and the jobs market will be slow. Not sure about rental market? On the pros side, it should be good for the kids starting a new school year in Feb (I think)? And it ticks a lot of other boxes for us such as house sale, and being able to finish work with a payoff that will allow us a 3-6 months to settle and find work. Also it'll be mid cricket season which will be a big plus to help my eldest settle and make friends. Just looking for a bit of advice from those who have gone before us...? TIA

Thanks for sharing. Love reading catch up posts!

Fantastic to hear you're doing well. It's always nice to read a sucess story!

Fantastic! Bet it's been a real whirlwind. You'll just be catching your breath after 2 weeks. I haven't made the move yet, but I'm sure others who have will be along soon! Had you done a reccie before going?

Congratulations! That'll soon be here. You got everything sorted?

Where did you end up taking them? I wanna think of lovely warm Oz places while sitting in the damp here!

Thanks for sharing - some fascinating stuff in there, but on the whole, no great surprises.
