Yes i agree with you there, i also work school terms but we have two daughters so will depend on the price of flights at the time aswell. We havnt told them yet, if i feel they are being affected by not having their dad here im going to head over the lmo covers wives and children aswell plus you can work over there with your qualifications. Its bittersweet at the minute, im excited about having future in canada and sad my hubby and bestfriend is going to be in another country.

Majella, us girls never have a problem finding support and friendship. I think we are kind of in the same boat, we dont want to jump in altogether for now but just see how he gets on first and let them suss out calgary and how their wages are and the cost of things, at the minute here your probably doing what we are and just existing so no matter what things can only get better. The wages are very good, hubby said its ten days on four days off, i would of asked them hundreds of questions but you know men they dont dig for information, did yous hear any other info?

There seems to be Facebook pages with Calgary, and also irish living in Calgary, there is an irish cultural society set up aswell, and wait for it......plenty of irish pubs for a bit of craic agus ceol and the gaa matches of course

He was told its mon to fri 50 hours a week Wages were 30 an hour plus 9.6% which works out about 34 an hour we think and a good chance for advancement in company hes doin drugs test this morn. what was your hubby told?

[happymammy]

Like i said he didnt dig, but maybe there is a chance to bank days like work the ten days and then have your four days off???? Where you given any other info? Im a wagon for information im a notebook and pen kinda girl and would have kept them there all day with questions haha

Ladies, we'll get this sorted! My partner has been asked to be ready for early next week so he'll probably be one of the first over there. They are accommodated for the first two weeks and then get their own place. We don't know where yet, Calgary or Edmonton. Flights seem to be "cheaper" from Gatwick. The security of a two year contract is reassuring and I think the Company is very family oriented so I'm sure they will have loads of info for us once the men have committed themselves to the contract. It will be lonely for us here without them, especially you two with children, but as a means to an end it's a great opportunity.

Also majella hes not heading until sep so he will probably have all that then, do you think they will be share renting or is he looking into just renting a house for the family asap

[happymammy]

Myroshe does that mean youve no kids and would be available to babysit if we all head over???? Hahaha....joke

[happymammy]

Yes flights do look cheaper, and company seems to be offering a great package, its such a boost to the lads to be wanted and offered a job that they deserve

[majella]

Really hope its as good as it looks, happymammy what ages are your kids?
