BobinOz’s Probably Wildly Inaccurate Australian Budget Special 2011

11 May 2011 Moving To Australia

I say that because I didn’t watch the budget or listen to it in any shape or form. Let’s face it, they can be a bit boring. I’ve seen quite a few in England, they are all pretty much the same. The Chancellor mentions words like million, billion, since, increased, improved, deficit and previous many, [...]

Is Australia a Good Place to Bring Up Children?

7 March 2011 Moving To Australia

Red Carpet Day in Brisbane’s Western Suburbs. I suppose you could say we’ve had another groundbreaking event in terms of our lives here in Australia.

As you probably know, I like to reprint my written articles from Australia and New Zealand magazine about a month after they have appeared in the paper and ink version in the UK.

Living in Australia and Staying in Australia

15 November 2010 Moving To Australia

BobinOz Day. On Friday I posted a video to celebrate the three-year anniversary of our leaving England to move to Australia. You can watch that video on my post Moving to Australia and Missing England. On Saturday our lives returned to normal again, but on Sunday we were celebrating once more. You see, whilst we [...]

How to Move to Australia: A Little Look at the Process…..

8 September 2010 Moving To Australia

But first…… Breaking News! This just in…. Details are still a little bit hazy, but apparently, yesterday, this country discovered who won the election and consequently, who is running the country. The guy who won the most seats, got the most primary votes and was ahead on a two-party preferred basis, well, he lost. But [...]

Buying Your Dream Home in Australia

25 August 2010 Moving To Australia

Without a doubt, one of the great things about moving to Australia is the opportunity of buying your dream home. Yes, we’ve had many a debate here about which houses are cheaper between the UK and Australia, but there is no doubt which houses are bigger. In fact, as you will have read in my [...]
