Hi Dolly,

We arrived 18th January 2008. It was snowing in Dublin when we left. Within two weeks we had bought a car, a house and had jobs lined up. Its all been easy really but we had been planning the move for about 8 years. My advice to people thinking of making the move is if you fail to plan, you plan to fail. Having the PR visas makes life a lot easier.

Out of a family of 5 kids, 3 of us live here now and i have to be honest, i have no intention of moving back to Ireland. Maybe in a few years i'll feel different about it.
