My week involved moving from Sydney to London. Thirty hours traveling and in between it; stale airports. We (my wife and I) took the long way around, because the world’s decided to stay interesting (or breathtakingly stupid, as I see it) and the routes that would normally fly by the middle east now can’t.
We’re holed up in temporary accomodation now. Its clean and functional, soulless but convenient. Suitcases still mostly packed as if we might find permanent accommodation tomorrow, even though we wont.
It’ll take time to settle in, no doubt. But the food’s been good. Proper good. The customs run a little different to back home, sure, but the people… most of them have been decent. Courteous at the very least, and sometimes even warm about it.
I miss my dog, a mini Australian bulldog, who wont fly over until we find our new home.
That’s been my week. Figured I’d say hello while I’m at it. Seems like as good a place as any to start getting to know a few people here in the UK.
I hope everything goes smoothly for you! There’s been a few people who have moved fairly recently from Aus/Nz to our org in the UK. Are you planning on living in London, or is it just a temporary base for now?

Welcome topside stranger! I’m surprised you find UK food better than Australian (tastewise, not pricewise), but always happy to hear it
London’s pretty well connected, and there’s a few places in the south (Croydon) that might have some decent lodgings if that helps
Welcome to the UK ya Aussie cunt!
