Hi not been here for a while, Has anyone got any advise on solar power suppliers, im looking at getting a 6kw system battery ready. Theres so many suppliers around and i dont want to waste too much time getting quotes Cheers in advance

Yes we've bought several houses here and still always get one done it can bring up hidden things like dampness etc...we negotiated fire alarms being fitted at one house as had none even though being rented Had a skimmer box changed on a swimming pool that was actually illegal the one they had....we are pretty much experts in what to look for but its extra peice of mind and sale is always subject to the inspection outcome...I can recommend 2 places if you've not got one already

Private messaged you Star 123

Hi guys been a while since I've posted anything but this is a very random request just wondering if anyone knows of any aged care facilities hiring down south that I can contact many thanks

Hi thx for putting this up I did know about it and used one last year for my daughters netball unfortunately not all Gropius / clubs accept them not sure why....my only question is is it per year ? Only it's a new year so could I use one again....thx for the reminder on this X

Totally agree property investment is the way to go

Im Australia yes and for now here but its not our forever location...we have many plans and areas we'd like to move

In Port Noarlunga now so nowhere near there not my idea ? We were lucky as became citizens whilst here before so could take our time coming back

So when you thinking of returning ? What area did you live before ? See you have walkerville on your status...lovely area we lived there when we came the first time for a bit loved it there

Get blinds put outside the Windows if you can helps heaps for us rarely turn on our air con

We went back for two holidays with no intention of ever returning the holidays were nice too....even flew back when my son was 3 months old and had several visits from family over the 9 years...did anyone come over whilst you were here ? Its so much easier to keep in touch with Skype etc we had non of that the first time around ......one thing that has changed is the ppl coming to visit no mention of it at all think the novelties worn off for our family even though they are retired now....oh well that's what you get for living the other side of the world

We went back as thought it best for the kids after having them they were toddlers when we returned we thought it better to grow up with family....as soon as we got off in the uk we thought what have we done....we could never settle and 4 years later we came back ...so glad we did but wish we'd stayed the first time things are very different for us this time around I personally loved it here the first time but moving back and forward somehow changed me ......you need to get the uk out of your system ...I don't regret going back it gave family an opportunity to see the grandkids again....but it was harder leaving the second time as they thought we were back for good I've known lots go back and regret it....I even had another family member ping pong too as they missed the shops in the uk good luck with your decision.....2 years wasn't long ....we was here for 9 years before we returned so it was a real wrench to go back you just have to go with what's right for you and your family

Yes that's what I was thinking just wasn't sure if the visa was still called that.....she wants to go back to the uk after just wants to get a feel for working here but wants to be able to get work ...I'm wondering if that would hold her back as its not permanent but I'm thinking a lot of nursing can be agency type work so might not matter just wondering if anyone's tried it or knows someone that has TIA

Thx so much for the comments....she's not coming to live permanently though so can't come on a residents visa ....purely a work one do you think she would get any work on one of those ?

Advice needed please I have a family member wanting to come out independently on a work visa (what is that called any special title for that visa) I feel it would be a better option to do that to coming with one company and then never being able to work for anyone else....has anyone done anything like this on a work visa? Does anyone know any nursing contacts here that they could contact for advice on doing this please she'll be an RN here any advice greatly appreciated thank you

Yes it's around that we shipped ours the other way cost almost as much as the four of us to fly but there was no way I was just gonna give her up to anybody cause I was moving we did a rabies check and then she couldn't fly for 6 months she just stayed with us we had no quarantine she then had another bloods once she got the all clear she then flew she was on a seperate flight to us as she went back before us and was met by family be careful too the shipping container to actually pay for in The cost they asked my family if they wanted it and that it was paid for ended up being very handy. Just did a rough Google but says going this way they need to spend at least 10 days in quarantine so obviously different this way

I agree totally so many problems this end they are so strict here
