Padchitchat Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Hello fellow Poms well 200 days have passed since we touched down in the merry old land of OZ ,in that time we have done all the usual things like find a rental ,get a car , waved daughter off to her first day at school ( its ok she is now talking to me lol ) sorted out medicare , driving licence , been to the good guys and had a bloody great haggle on all our white goods , spent a fortune on a dome brekkie and met up for a beer or two with VS who should change his name to google he really is like a human search engine theres not a lot he don,t know about life in Mandy plus a top bloke .In that time also started my business so got to grips with some of the do,s and don'ts of Oz business practice but its all good once you get your head round it .Have met some cracking Aussies as well as kiwis ,South Africans, Japanese etc and lots of fellow Pom,s all with the same common goal Yep enjoying life and giving there familys a good life but not taking it all too serious .So to those of considering a bit of a life change !! i say go for it seize the nettle make the most of the cards your dealt with , yes its tough and don,t let anyone tell you otherwise but there are loads of great people over here all going through the same experiences .Yes there are days when you miss your mates and family and you can,t just pop in for a cuppa but we have got well used to using Skype and Facetime even found out that when skype signal freezes up realatives can still hear you ( Sorry Dad).200 days in still feels like holiday every day can,t explain why it just does heres to the next 200. All the best Paddy Chitchat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
