I'm going to say it, they don't seem that bright do they?

Sparklingbrook · 05/02/2013 09:50

Why did she fly back? I must have missed something.

The house is not quite on the same scale as the lovely shaded, with-pool ones they were looking at on their visit. Kind of fits with what someone on this thread who lives in Oz said about the rental market being so competitive and you just have to grab what you can get.

Sparklingbrook · 05/02/2013 09:50

Well they seem over the moon with joy don't they? Confused

Aww, she needs a bloody good hug.

newbiefrugalgal · 05/02/2013 09:50

Deva -correct!

FatimaLovesBread · 05/02/2013 09:50

Not very organised then if she couldn't fit the belongings in Hmm

DevaDiva · 05/02/2013 09:51

They have had a shit time though, music's picking up for the happy ending?

MrsReiver · 05/02/2013 09:51

I don't think she elaborated on why Sparkling. It's all a bit strange.

Sparklingbrook · 05/02/2013 09:51

I think the Mum could do with some counselling. Sad

Think the kids and the dad have got the most out of this, the mum seems a bit down !

FatimaLovesBread · 05/02/2013 09:52

They call them boogie boards here too you know Grin

SconeInSixtySeconds · 05/02/2013 09:52

Thing is the packers wrap items in so much packaging you get a lot less in the boxes than you expect. And a twenty foot container costs about 7000 pounds.

newbiefrugalgal · 05/02/2013 09:53

How old is Reece? Off to childcare???

susiedaisy · 05/02/2013 09:53

What's her career?

Sparklingbrook · 05/02/2013 09:53

Blimey she is working 9-5 too.

MrsReiver · 05/02/2013 09:53

Children of all ages go to childcare Newbie Grin

SconeInSixtySeconds · 05/02/2013 09:54

It is really hard to make friends you know. Aussies are lovely and very friendly, but very hard to make friends with in my experience.

susiedaisy · 05/02/2013 09:54

Gosh mum seems really subdued

FatimaLovesBread · 05/02/2013 09:54

Sparkling - I think because the container was too small so she had to go back to sort the house and the rest of their things. I think

newbiefrugalgal · 05/02/2013 09:54

I've had quotes 20 foot container £5000

annh · 05/02/2013 09:54

Did we hear why she went back to the UK after only 5 days?

newbiefrugalgal · 05/02/2013 09:55

I want those honeybees

susiedaisy · 05/02/2013 09:55

Got to give them credit for sticking at it!

SconeInSixtySeconds · 05/02/2013 09:56

Did that include the customs cost in oz newbie? Good deal if so. Don't forget about insurance too.
