Well I found out this afternoon that Jon has just got a job on Norfolk Island so we are going to be leaving to move there for 2 years. I am a bit excited about going bit also a little bit scared as well.

Didn't know if I should put a thumbs up or thumbs down!! Great news for you all, if not a little scarey.

Congratulations to Jon on the promotion and I'm sure it will be a great adventure. I'm already planning your first scrapping care pack

We'll be sad to see you go.

Cheers,

Nicola

Jon has to be there by the 16th January so we have about 6 weeks to pack the house up and either sell it or rent it still haven't decided.

See ya Mel, Jon, Monique and Gavin,

You're just worried about having no malls to shop at...oh well, bring on the tax free stuff!!

Get those spare beds ready for an influx of ACT visitors.

We will miss you all, and will be ready with open arms on your return in 2-3 years (if we can remember what you look like...ha ha)

Missing you already Babe....

Wohooo!!!!! How exciting!!!!
Glad you didn't let kidcity know you were going before it changed hands ;p
You can start up your own state/territory group on EB for Norfolk Island and organise your own get togethers etc. Wonder if you will be the only poster?

Yeah, I know when I met you almost 3 years ago, you were saying that you would love to go there. Now you have it! I am so happy for you.

So, a question is; do you have to go thru Darwin to get there?

Thanks

OMG i just noticed that too! huge congrats Laura!

Mel, Jon, Monique & Gavin,

Congratulations on your move (though I must say I'm a bit sad to see you go). Austin will now have to find another older woman to chase after and annoy.

Don't know much about Norfolk but at least its a bit closer to your families without being too close.

Norfolk Island....how lucky.
Just thought I'd say congrats and I hope you are looking forward to Tax Free Shopping. There is no GST and they have the cheapest Lego there in Australia.

Best wishes for the move to Norfolk. We are all going to miss you like crazy. We may just have to pack our bags and join you for a holiday.

Congratulations and enjoy your new adventure

Congratulations! How exciting but now the dreaded moving and packing starts. I hope everything goes smoothly for you and we see you back soon.
Shelly

Mel,
