Happy New Year, But Not For All...

It's been awhile, faithful and patient reader, but I'm back on the blog! I hope you had a great Christmas and I wish you a very Happy New Year!

This is the year it all happens; I have my visa trip in April and the house will be going on the market in the next month or so. From then on it's a waiting game for a buyer and then we're off!

And whilst I have you attention for a moment, can you spare any money for the poor people of Haiti? I'm sure you've seen the devastation caused by the recent earthquake, and the millions of people this has affected.

The Disasters Emergency Committee has set up an appeal, and you can donate by clicking HERE.

Thanks.

There are all manner of reasons for leaving the UK and going to live in Australia. I've already mentioned the weather, the living conditions, the people. But, for me at least, there's another, far more trivial reason. And that is the Cherry Ripe. Manufacture by Cadbury's in Australia but bizarrely not available in the UK, it is a dark chocolate coated, coconut enshrined piece of cherry goodness. Quite by far the best chocolate bar I've ever had, and I consider myself a connoisseur. If you've never had one, believe me it's worth trading continents for. Yes, it's high in everything that's bad for you and I expect I'll put on a couple of stone once subjected to one every day, but I'll exercise. Or something. They say the devil is in the details and this is one of my details. Of course I'm looking forward to everything else Australia can offer me, but this is the icing on the cake.

Down Under Live!

I am attending the Down Under Live exhibition on Saturday 30th January; it's an expo with seminars on migration and will have recruitment, studying and various other services on hand for those wishing to get out of the UK. I'm hoping I'll pick up some useful job contacts. If anyone else is going I'll see you there!

Farewell, Weather Gadget!

The fact that I couldn't get the weather gadget to accurately forecast anywhere other than New York has finally got the better of me and I have canned it. Perhaps at a future juncture I will resurrect it, but for now, it's toast. I suggest if you want to know what the weather is like, look out the window.
