Kids moving away

Both kids were instructed from birth that they had to leave home at 18. They both dutifully did this with a minimum of fuss so that they could go to uni in Melbourne.


I didn't check the fine print and recently they have temporarily moved home again while they organize their next stage of life.

Ant and Jess head off to Perth WA on February 4th so that ant can start his first job as a graduate lawyer. He is very exicited and has done well to get this opportunity.

Slightly more unexpected is Emily's move. She is off to study medicine at James Cook uni in Townsville in February. Studying medicine has been Em's dream since school and as much as she has really enjoyed her first year out as a physiotherapist when an opportunity beckons you have to follow your dream! Well done Em!!

I don't think they could have travelled further apart and stay in Australia but this means more places for us to visit - so ok you UK rellies come and play

So a 36 hour drive to visit Ant and a 29 hour drive to visit Em. Not that we intend to drive regularly to either. Think that we might be spending a bit on airfares.

Haven't they done well
