Quick Update from Oz

Just a quick update as not got huge amount of time today. Will try and update tomorrow with pics and more info!

Flight was 2 hours late getting into Sydney, mainly due to BA switching planes at the last minute as the entertainment system wasn't working, and subsequently putting us onto a plane where the entertainment system wasn't working!!! Oh, except for about 6 seats at the back, of which 2 were ours :-) Much abuse was given to us by other people when they saw us watching films!!

Arranged bank accounts on the first day. Went to Gosford yesterady with Em and Izzy and met the admin people at the hospital. Went over to Sydney to the Medical Board and the Immigration office, so they can now work in the hospital, and we can't be deported ... always a good thing to sort out I think. Have been back into Gosford today and now have Australian driving licenses and medicare cards which basically put us on an NHS esque system where we don't pay for any medical treatment.

Will go out and take photos of house, Terrigal and some of the wildlife and upload soon. House is great, 1 minute from the beach and is really well kitted out. Terrigal is a holiday town really, so we've got shed loads of restaurants and shops, surf clubs, diving ... you name it it is pretty much guaranteed to be here!!

Will post again soon as time about to run out at the internet cafe. going to try and sort internet for home in next few days so will be able to update more regularly.
