Hi, Breaking Lease - Rental available 6th June - House is lovely, very close to the beach (end of the street), parks, shops & public transport nearby. https://m.realestate.com.au/property-house-sa-semaphore+park-418458266 Feel free to ask any questions :-).

I wish our Landlord was as kind as yours! Ours wouldnt even meet us half way!

We feel your pain! We too had a nightmare. We approached a few providers. Telstra could provide however no line so we would of had to pay $300 connection. We really didnt want to pay this as we are in a rental and we wont be at this address for long. Anyway we found a ISP called Vividwireless. Its brilliant. Not had any drop outs and speed is great. We can use it anywere we go. If anyone signs up, there is an option to enter a discount code. Put in 83931 as you get a month free. (Its a refer a friend code) if for some reason it expires. You can google another one but searching vividwireless reviews.

Ive never been to the Show so looking forward to it. I am taking my 2 year old on Tuesday especially to watch Dorothy the Dinosaur. Hes absolutely crazy about The Wiggles! Have to admit I love them too ha!

No you dont pay it all upfront. I found Movecube were very clear with there charges. When i was gathering quotes from different shipping company many didnt include the Australia cost at this end. So you pay a deposit then only the UK Logistic cost then you pay the second part when the goods have arrived on Australian soil. Like I said Movecube will detail these costings. The only cost that they cant tell is if the Aussie Customs charge you for goods that need treatment etc. Hope this helps.

Thanks Snifter as it was yourself who recomended movecube a while back! So cheers for that :-). Things are great, happy to be back. Weve slotted back into a routine, looking forward to some warmer weather now!!.

This was our fears! We know only too well your frustrations. We too have lived in West Lakes and no one could provide us. We ended up getting mobile broadband too. It was so annoying. Ive since found out we have a phone line installed and the previous tenants had the internet so its looking good :-). Think we are going to go with TPG, unlimited for $60 but they have high set up fees!

Hi Philly47 Optus didnt give me much info just 'sorry we cannot offer you broadband as they cannot connect at our premises'. Weve been looking at TPG, set up fees arent cheap though?

Thank you!! Ill check out the link snifter, cheers:-)

Hi Everyone, Is there anyone that lives in Semaphore Park that can recommend a good Broadband supplier? (Optus cannot provide) Thanks

Hi, I wanted to share our move cube feedback with the forum especially to anyone that's thinking of using them. We decided to go ahead and book a Small Cube for our return to Adelaide. The Small Cube measures 2 square metres (size of a red telephone box), we only had personal belongings, no furniture so the small one was adequate for us, we filled it with 15 boxes and had loose items too and there was still room left! Customer service was very good, helpful and responded quickly to any questions we had. Impressed how quick they could book us in, Just a week after our phone call we had them come out to complete the site inspection and then a few days after we had our move cube delivered to be loaded Had frequent emails keeping me informed of the cubes movement, I could also log in on there website to see track the cube and to also make any outstanding payments. Shipment took 11 weeks which is what I was advised. All belongings intact and noticed the cube was packed very well! Drivers we're very helpful Paperwork straight forward enough Good price too Overall we we had an execellent experience with Movecube, had no issues at all, fantastic service and we would highly recommend there services! Thanks Sevenseas.

We arrived and we survived the flight with our little one!! :-) We cannot believe how good our little boy was! He slept for 8 hours on the first leg and 2 hours on the second. The inbetween bit was fine too, he sat in his seat (totally recommend getting a seat) and watched good old Peppa Pig and had a nosy around. Thanks for the recommended night flight out of London...it was definitely the best option! Glad to be back in Adelaide!! Arrived to beautiful sunshine! Now the challenge of getting the LO adjusting to the time difference!

You could always hire one until you find the one your satisfied with. We used Jen at Adelaide Baby Hire on a few occasions. Shes fab! We are hiring off her again for next week. She has an agreement with a few of the Hire Car companys at Airport wereby she installs it prior to you picking your car up. http://www.adelaidebabyhire.com.au/

Cant believe it little one may have chicken pox. I doubt very much we will be on our way next week now!! :-( Called Singapore airlines, currently waiting for a callback!! Hope we dont have to wait weeks!!

Thanks for the tips :-) Would love to sleep the whole way but no chance of any with a 22 month old!

Hi :-) We fly to Adelaide from London on the 2nd of June & the nerves have started to set in especially with whats happened recently. Unfortunately im not a very good flyer nor is my husband! Has anyone got any good tips on how to overcome these awful feelings!! Nat & Gaz :-)

Thanks Nic F! Thought so....Ive that many things going around in my head I just wasnt sure :-)

Hi, So were returning to Adelaide in less than 2 weeks as you can imagine we have heaps on our mind. Something has just come to me.... Husband & I have perm residency visa however our son was born in Adelaide and we obtained an aussie passport prior to returning to the Uk. My question is do we need to inform immi for them to update our visa to show our son on or do we not have to do anything with him having an australian passport? Thanks☺

Oh no!!! This cannot happen yet. Im on my way back end of May so lets hope no decision has been made :-)

Thats great!

This is fabulous! Do you have to pay Tax on items from the UK tshops you mention?

Thanks for this info Snifter. Im now wondering whether a car seat is compulsory if under 2? Ill check with the airline we book with.

Thanks everyone for sharing your thoughts & experiences. I have a few options to go over. Had a quick look at the Singapore route leaving 10pm LHR then a 5hour stopover...arriving ADL 7am... price is cheaper than Emirates too so its looking good. I think it will be easier for our LO to have a kip if we do it this way, not only that its the longest leg so once were at Changi we can say NOT LONG now ha :-)
