WE NOW ONLY HAVE TO SEND OFF THE GRANT LETTER AND OUR PASSPORTS TO HAVE THE "GRANT EVIDENCE" STAMPED INTO OUR PASSPORTS!
HAVE TO ENTER AUSTRALIA BY THE 15TH OCTOBER 2009
Laima and Brian have been in Perth for a month now, it does not seem they have been gone for over two months!!!! Brian is finishing a few weeks more work on a shut down project so does not look like they will spend their 1st xmas in Perth!!! We all miss you guys!!!!!
Robbie has settled into School and Miah has also merged back into full time nursery very well! We all seem busy people now which is really good! We look to now get Christmas out of the way and start planning/saving for our future venture out to Oz!!!
We may Validate next summer and go out Early 2010!!! Watch this space!!!!!!!!!!

WE HAVE A CO!!!!!!
Well I phoned up Chichester Clinic and booked up the X-Rays for the 8th October 2008 and the medicals for all 4 of us on Friday the 9th. :-)
The Police check forms have also been done and I just need to now post them.. When everything has cleared (hopefully in a month) we should have our VISA FOR OZ
Will then be time to start looking at the other details around emigrating! Dog/flights/removals etc. We still plan to move out in July/Aug 2009!!! Lina would have finished college then!

CRASH - Our house sales fell through
Well the In-Laws left for Sydney on the 8th September and they are loving it! Brian pretty much started work straight away and Laima has been checking out the shops etc. We are not sure whether they will be staying in Sydney for the duration of the year or if they will go to Brisbane! We shall see.. We are still waiting for some piccies!!
Robbie has started school and Miah in pre-school. Now that the house has falled through - we are going to stay in the UK a bit longer. Lina is going to finish College and her last exam is in June. Robbie will finish up his 1st year close to that also. We may even rent our house out and go at that point. There is no way we are going to accept a silly offer on our house even if the market is as sh*t as it is!!!
The VISA process is speeding up! The DIAC are really ploughing through the Case office allocations for May 2008 now. There are applicants all around us getting CO's and even VISA grants!! I am checking everyday to see whats happening. I cannot believe it's happened this quick!!
When I get some pics sent from Sydney - Will need to post them up!!

Out house has been up for sale since the start of June 08' and we have had quite a few viewings. Had an offer yesterday which is good. Now pushing to get a bit more out of the buyer and then try to get out into renting asap.
We all go to Florida in exactly 6 weeks time!! cannot wait ! (The Villa Pool PIC above). It would be nice to finalise this house sale and move out before then (this guy is a cash buyer) we shall see!!
