wow thanks dolly . this is just like the ncma here in uk .

while im on here,

what we really long for , is to have good weather most of the year round, to beable to go out ith the kids instead of being stuck in the house most of the year because of the british weather . i would love to just ddeside to go to the beach for the afternoon and play in the sand . i do love the more calm beach safe for children.. we love good food and eating out . goods shops. clean towns . good schools, parks , things to do for children.
australia is a big place . and it seems so confusing.

where in your opinion considering my ideas would you suggest a good place to settle for us to be ?

hi dolly again .
visas.... wow where do we start.
im not even sure which one to apply for?? mark is an overhead linesman for the railway. but we are not sure what he would come under in the needed list? do you have an idea? how many visas do we apply for , would me and my 5 year old daughter go onto his visa? how much does it cost for the kind of visa that we will need ? when i look at the sites they actually baffle me >>
once visa has been accepted doe we all need to enter the country before we all permentnetly come over.
my partner has just turned 40 .
i have a parent who is 55 and some sisters and brothers who would like to follow shortly after if we made the move . what sort of visa would they need to permenantly stay in australia. retire in austalia. my mother cares for the elderly here in the uk .

Hi there,

Well, weather wise places like Perth, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast....if you like to have the seasons and with better weather than the UK, then Melbourn's your place.

Re your visas, have you checked on the SOL to see if Mark's job is on there..or anything close to? Otherwise a quick word with an agent would sort it.

Have a look at the sticky at the top of the page "Thinking of emigrating?"..it has a link to DIAC where you'll find definitions of all the visas. Again, a word with an agent would put you in the right directionl

Good luck!

Dolly
