Yeah I know doogs, but the UK kids love it… Don’t worry about your daughter and her name. People will soon figure it out. Names here in uk are much more far out and even more obscure with their spelling, believe me.

Basically marilyn, you take £100K and convert it to aussie dollars, you get $240K. You can do a lot more with $240K in Australia than £100K in UK.

Prices of houses here in Uk are absolutely ridiculous and the investors are looking outside Europe for the lifestyle and the returns.

LEgally, Uk residents can get an appropriate visa to live in A…[Read more]

Fullout,
Haveyou checked that the furniture complies with fire standards? Eg, a couch that has a fire retardant in it etc etc… I heard a horror storey of someone that bought a house fully furnished and coz the furniture was so old it didn’t come up to “tenant” standard and he had to get rid of the whole lot and buy a whole heap more! Check…[Read more]

I think the only good thing about home DIYers, is that when they cock it up, it will decrease the value of the house waiting for people like Cremin and I to snap it up!! Woohoo! I am sure there are tonnes of people out there living in a DIY nightmare just wanting to get out of it quickly. Hopefully we shall be able to find them… Hee hee…[Read more]

Hey Slatz you think DIY shows in Aus are bad, HA!. You should see the pommy shows over here. I don’t think one person on any of the shows has the faintest idea what they are doing and how pathetically transparent they are, especially to some-one in the trade such as myself.
For example The weakest link had a celebrity night, the chippie off one of…[Read more]

Well, “advice” tends to give the impression that I can hold you to your word and we are here to help each other that’s all. I will take what you say and hopefully it will work for me, but I will use it to how it suits my situation, so I think it is more help… anyway that nitpicky on my part…

I am still unsure though what could happen if I go…[Read more]

I am just so pleased I found this information as Cremin and I go to most free seminars coz ther are well, FRee. But we will keep HK in mind and not go to his.

Talking about seminars, we went to one a few weeks back with a mob here in London just to see if they had any new strategies, but sure enough it was your hard sell bit etc etc.

We stayed…[Read more]

Me to know and um, me to know… Hee hee… Sorry not giving out any other hints.

Thanks for your reply Simon, I am not looking for “advice” as such, just an idea of what to expect when we get home.
