We've just arrived last week. In Port Noarlunga at the mo, and just in the process of looking for a longer term rental.

We have 2 boys aged 5 and 8. Give us a shout when you arrive and we can arrange a meet up.

We're arriving 24th February and are also looking at the Golden Grove area. When do you arrive Masha?

When we went down to Victor Harbour last year, my husband had a steak in a little restaurant there - can't for the life of me remember the name of it now - and he says it was the best steak he has ever had, and he's dreaming of the next time we visit!!!

I check our bank & credit cards every day, so hopefully I'd pick up on something if it cropped up! The Coles statement sounds confusing - worth knowing they do that though incase we ever get one.

What's pay pass by the way? Is it same as contact less?

I used to love Neighbours! Flicked the TV on the other day & it was on the right channel & my 4 year old didn't move for 15 minutes! Couldn't believe Lou & Harold were still there!

So how do you go on when you collect the car? They asked us for a credit card because they block off the excess amount, but don't actually take the money unless they need to. I'm pretty sure they told us they couldn't do that with a debit card?

Thankyou, I couldn't recall the name, no we are still in Darwin at the moment, go to Adelaide on Saturday, any idea when you guys are heading over? X

Nope, no idea yet. Waiting on an offer on the business still - so looking unlikely to be this year at this rate. I'll be living through everyones pictures - so be sure to put plenty on!

We used East Coast Car Rental. Found them very helpful, had no problems. They collected us from the airport & took us to their office just around the corner. We booked through holidayautos.co.uk (or maybe .com).

How's things going? Have you arrived in Adelaide now?

We used Go Matilda. We had a straightforward case, but felt more at ease using an agent, & they were absolutely fantastic. And still are if we have any questions - like recently when we needed to ask about transferring the visa to an up dated passport.

We used East Coast car rentals last year. They were great, reasonably priced, collected us from the airport & took us to the depot.

Great info @snifter, thank you

Wonderful! Congratulations

Oh it takes a lot longer than you first think! Give yourself plenty of time x

I can imagine. It'll be tough because he'll need his tools until nearer the time when we ship them, & there's no point cleaning them twice!! It'll be one of those into the night jobs, I can just tell!!

My hubbys a mechanic & we haven't got to the cleaning tools stage yet - but good to know about the rusty tools.

Takes me back to August! Cannot wait to be back there!

Glad day 1 went well hope today was just as positive x

These are great Nic. Would love for people to put other areas up too. [emoji2]

We're with NAB. Opened it before arriving & had no problem once we got there to pick up bank cards & access money we had transferred via Moneycorp

We booked through Holiday Autos when we were over back in August & the hire company were called East Coast Rentals. Couldn't fault them at all. They had a shuttle running from the airport to their office which was a 5 minute journey. They picked us up within 10 minutes of ringing to let them know we were through baggage. Would recommend them.

We flew with Singapore back in August & couldn't fault them at all.

We stayed in one of Tamara's Port Noarlunga houses back in August & as she said - the drive up to Hallet Cove was really easy from there, so would highly recommend like looking at those.

Great video, would love to drive that road one day. It's definitely on our road tripping list!

Sitting freezing cold at work with snow in the forecast, this all sounds very appealing!!

Although, I'm pretty sure I won't be saying that when we're actually faced with the heat of summer!

Amusing post though!

Yay! Huge congratulations! Amazing feeling isn't it?!

Thanks for the link Andrew. And both for the recommendation.

I'll get in touch with Kerry & see if she can help/give me advice.
