We're already working out how much we can actually get rid of i.e. sell before we go. This is going to be my biggest ever clearout for a NNS. Cotbed, travel cot, etc can go. Load of Steffi's videos. Can't wait. But the bits I really hate are dealing with mortgage co, solicitor, estate agents etc. Financial arrangements, healthcare, etc. Bleugh! Thank goodness Steffi starts school on Thursday and Grae is around - we should get a lot more done. -- Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 3, 2000 Report Share Posted September 3, 2000 Wow, Sue - so this is permanent, not just contract? Barbara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a contract but for a year from the outset, rather than the usual three months that gets renewed and renewed and renewed.... which has always held us back from making a jump before since we can never be sure how long we'll be away. Now I have to pluck up the courage to phone Steffi's school-to-be head (where she starts on Thursday) and tell her we'll be taking her out and the end of term. And be very nice and cross my fingers that we can get her back in when we return. -- Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 3, 2000 Report Share Posted September 3, 2000 That'll be convenient for visiting the in-laws. Bit closer than USA, anyway. Will you be setting up an NCT equivalent there with Debbie Slater? Alison > > Well, it looks like that's it.

Shame about Grae's mum dying earlier this year - would have been nice to be close to her, although 'close' is a relative term - would still have been about 7 hours' flying to see her! > anyway. Will you be setting up an NCT equivalent there with Debbie Slater? Debbie isn't too close either! I'm sure Oz could do with something tho - they only have Nursing Mother's Assoc as far as I can find out - even NZ has more than that! -- Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks but I doubt I will leave egroups, it being as easy to sign up from there as here! Like Joyce, I will probably find it keeps me sane in my first few months there. We're planning a year initially but will have to see whether Grae's contract is rolled over or what else is in the pipeline when we get towards the end of that time. -- Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melbourne, Oz! Mentally, I'm already there. In fact, I wish I was already there! Packing up is going to be a nightmare and I am actually dreading the flight! Oh no, not another long haul flight. -- Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
