So, for everyone who keeps asking "when you going to Australia?"

Could you please pay a pound into my pay pal account. At this rate, if I got a pound for everyone who did ask, we would be able to travel there first class, or even our own private jet!

Seriously, it’s nice that people are interested in our progress. Well, I hope it’s nice or do they want to get rid of us? Anyway, it looks like my employer wants to get rid of me, having told me that my role at work is redundant at the end of September. Fingers crossed, I can get an early release date and leave at the end of July, in order to start packing, and selling the rubbish that we no longer need and watching as much cricket as possible.

So is there an update? Well, no, not really. According to one website I look at, the Australians are currently processing applicants who applied in November, we are a January applicant.

However, due to the supposed housing crisis, we are currently just tidying up the house, garden and any other odds and sods, in order to get a few estate agents in to put the house up for sale. A bit of a risk, but one we feel is worth taking. If anyone knows or is looking for a nice, tidy 4 bedroom semi with garage and rear back garden, in the suburbs of South East London, please point them in the way of this house that’s for sale
