Em got her rotations back through from Jersey and we spent a bit more time researching living on the island and found that it really is pretty bad if you want to get work there and aren't born and bred jersey. With the fact that I wouldn't be able to earn much well and truly confirmed from this research and asking a couple of questions of the helpful ladies at the Jersey NHS recruitment office; plus the information from Jersey that Emma hadn't got her favoured rotation of Anaesthetics made us realise that if she had stayed here in Australia we would have been far better off.
Queue grovelling email to the Wessex Deanery and an anxious two week long wait to see what came of it. Finally it came and it was good news. They had agreed that we were in an exceptional situation and that Jersey is a very specific set of conditions which would have caused us to potentially struggle next year.
So suffice to say we are dead chuffed that we are now staying down under for another year! We are going to be coming back to the UK in July to use the return tickets that we bought and spend a week or more with the parents and visiting friends.
