Wanted down under 2

[susiedaisy]

Have started a new one

"Passmethecrisps desperately wants to move her young family to Australia in pursuit of one thing . . . Crispy chips"

They moved back!

Argh they're back in the UK That's a shame

Whaaatttttt despite the crispy chips they moved back
Did the daughter and her bf too?

Yes!

Did they??? When did it say that?

Obviously those crisps weren't as good as they looked

Chips. Not crisps.

Weird. Elderly granny unwell?

Maybe the were too crispy.
I thought the daughter would stay.
Oh well.

After giving Australia a shot, since filming took place last year, the family have returned to live in the UK.
Although they enjoyed their year in Australia, on balance the family felt the country just didn’t offer enough to keep the family there on a long term basis.
After Kerry and John returned to the UK, Chloe and Sam stayed on for a short period, but have also since returned home. We wish the family all the best for the future.

Good work hismum.

Lady just couldn't settle maybe?

a bit sad that a truck driver earns more than a midwife

So to recap, each family from this series of revisited has either moved down under (or intended to move pending visa) or to Surrey?

Maybe the novelty of having him home every night wore off.
Must have been a big adjustment after living practically seperate lives for so long.

I'd imagine the youngsters could only get one year visas.

Surely they anticipated this?

Shame it was a sad ending.

whattt??? the walk in wardrobe, endless sunshine, life/work balance and a pool wasn't enough???

I hope they've managed to change their lifestyle here

Cannot imagine the costs involved in moving over for one year and then moving back. A year is nothing. I'm only just starting to feel settled here in the UK and it's been 4 and a half years.

Don't think they gave it a fair shot if it was only 12 months.

I agree, costs must be huge. Although if they rented out their uk place (fully furnished?) then that would keep the costs down, along with making it feel less like a permanent move.
My brother moved to Melbourne from London (although we are originally antipodean) and it took him two years to feel settled. We are one year into our (within uk) move and still finding it hard.

Morning guys!

I'm here but will probably only watch the last 30 mins.

Their house in Aberdeen looked lovely! Nice couple.

Totally bored by this one

Oh a local couple i missed them first time round.

Me too Wilson. I think it gets to the point where the novelty wears off and you start to not care what they do....
