laurenalexa88 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 (edited) Hi there! We are a young couple from Scotland living in Perth WA. We are currently in the running to WIN our wedding in an online competition We are up against 4 other couples, one America based and 3 UK based to win the entire wedding! It is an amazing opportunity for us and having been together for 10 years (childhood sweethearts!) we cant wait to get married! We now need to get as many votes as we can to win the wedding... thats where your help comes into this....! It is quick and easy to vote, all you have to do is go online to- It is only one vote per person and we have all of our friends and family back home voting for us but we dont have many friends here in Australia yet so we are really hoping that you lovely people might help us out. It would be very much appreciated! We have until Wednesday 7th to get as many votes as possible! Thank you so much!

Weedolly Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Will you be coming back on the forum after the competition or have you only joined to get people to vote for you - only asking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Hi Lauren, Welcome to PP. My apologies I have had to remove your links - perhaps people can PM you for the details if they want to vote for you. Where in Perth are you living and how long have you been here? It would be great for you to share your migration story and helpful hints for those looking to come over. Good luck in your competition.

laurenalexa88 Posted May 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Our Story- We have been in Perth for 2 years, and I work as an ED nurse in a Perth Hospital and my partner is an Engineer. We live near East Perth and we like it here but miss the friendliness of people back home... and family of course. Its a nice place to live, very beautiful beaches etc but I cant say we are entirely settled. There are a lot of differences in nursing and makes the good old NHS not seem so bad looking back some times! There is a lot more drugs/alcohol/mental health presentations here it seems, which is sad, I guess its a nurses opinion of the grass isn't always greener... just my opinion. To 'weedolly' I have previously been on this site and have found it very helpful-but yes you are correct (you little detective!) I did join so I could post about our comp, I have no immediate wishes to become a 'senior member' like yourself. I just thought people may be friendly and be able to help us out seeing as its an online competition and people are already on their computers reading this, also I have found that Brits (most Brits) enjoy helping their 'own kind'!.... and lets be honest if anyone had a 1/5 chance of winning a $30,000 wedding I'm sure alot of people would try their hardest to win it....! So you cant blame me for trying! But not to worry- I do not wish to offend anyone by posting! Have a lovely day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
