[Bathsheba]

Good evening girls Maya, it's a bit like that here. DH and Niall hit the beds as soon as we returned from our trip to Nunawading (clothes from factory outlets for DH's school reunion next weekend). Niall has a slight temp so I hope what ever he has will come and go by next Friday. House is a pigsty, dinner needs to be cooked, Wade is helping himself to the endless flow of juice (enjoy the time before your toddlers can access the fridge!) Verity is doing something on her computer which makes mine extremely SLOW! Everytime I try to do something a hundred obstacles fall in my path... so I'm just not doing anything. Tali: I hope your DH gets the nod. The bank is a bit the same: will only fund relocations to remote places/overseas. They have a shortage of people wanting to work in those places and enough people in the major cities. They are MEAN'T to fund your return to your designated location after a stint in a "remote" place but they can be very fickle about that too It would cost a similar amount for us to relocate back up to Nth NSW... would be better if we could do 2 years abroad (funded) then designate NSW as our "return" location IYKWIM? 13 years ago the bank funded nearly every relocation... they funded our move to Warrigul (VIC) in 1995... but we had to fund our return to Melbourne because the next year they cracked down. I suspect things might change with the impending severe labor shortage. Companies are going to have to bend over backward to get a manger to rural places... I live in hope that DH sees a funded job in Northern NSW... at the moment it's only to places out the back of Burke!

"Mum I'm hungry" Wade. Better go deal.
