About Us
Our dream can be seen on these blog sheets and on our Scrapbook which is being putting together as we head along our dream.
This dream started for us in January 2007 when visiting Oz for the second time. I think we all had thoughts about going, but it wasn't until March that DJP & JLP started to talk about whether we'd want to or not.
When, sadly the Chigborough was closed, we looked at where we were heading and thought about Oz more seriously but the first big mile stone started the ball rolling when Djp and J47ep talked and a plan developed over the next couple of months!
We could do it - Jlp goes out to work, Djp works as a Chef and J47ep eventually runs a B&B which if successful could mean Djp works there as well.
Research followed and by May we were heading to Austalia House in London for an immigration briefing - WE CAN DO IT!
More research followed and then the sums!

Will definately need looking into. Not sure where we stand regards treatment for first 2 years. Know after we get our Visas to stay, health service is much better than ours, having had lots of conversations with Kath about it when I was out in Bunbury
Still not sure about the rules, but it looks like we don't get medicare for ten years so have to have private health insurance
Not sure about rules either. Guess that is a question to ask when we go in june. Perhaps we should start a list of questions we want to ask.
Guess this comes in this catagory if not I am sure you will put it in right place. As far as I can find out there is no statutory retirment age in Oz, guess it all depends on health and finances.
OK - so I said before we all go I need to lose weight, so now its a requirement! Auzzie requirements - cast doubts at medical if TB, Hepititus, Aids & obese! Obsese leads to questions regarding diabetis etc, and while I'm not there I could easily be there if we don't get weight in order now!
