Hollie Atherton Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Hello, My husband and I are emigrating in 3 weeks, we are literally taking a couple of suitcases and that's it. Everything else has been sold. Is there anything we should take in our cases that we might not have thought about that you wish you had taken or took and were really glad you did?

SunshineBee Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Hey Hollie, I can't offer too much advice on your question I'm afraid but I'm sure someone will be along with advice soon. I just wanted to say good luck and how brave! We fly out a couple of weeks after you and we had the shippers in yesterday taking our stuff away, so we are now in our house in the UK living like students in our very echoey house, but it's really liberating and I haven't missed anything yet! So I'm sure being the other side won't be a problem if you do happen to forget something. Whereabouts are you guys planning on living when you arrive?

Redsquare Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 If you're brining items that need chargers, mobiles laptops etc, bring a multi way uk extension lead and change the plug over here. An Australian plug is only $3 from Bunnings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redsquare Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Sunglasses! They're pretty expensive over here. I bought some wraparound sunglasses from Decathlon before we came out last year. They were only £8 and I've worn them almost every day. They're not the most stylish of sunglasses but they protect my eyes wonderfully. We're going back to the UK for a holiday soon and I'll be stocking up with a few pairs.
