Hi,
It's really interesting reading this the day after i have been asked to go for my medicals and police checks. I am so worried that i am letting my daughter down by moving her away from her family and friends and am concerned i won't cope away from my support network. I know it won't be plain sailing but you give me inspiration that i'll cope!

If you click on "Search" at the top of the page Martin and type in "Woodvale", you should find some info there.
Good luck with the move.

I think the starting point is to look where your living and see which operators provide the best coverage in that area. If your out in the sticks, Telstra's Next G, whilst expensive, will provide the best coverage.

Hi irishchick
I live and work on the Gold Coast and I can assure you that Tallebudgera is not at all a crime central area. It is a lovely natural area that offers a great lifestyle.
Jimboomba is a beautiful semi-rural location in the Beaudesert Shire that is poised to boom over the next few years as Brisbane continues to decentralise. It's no worse affected by the "drought" than the ...

Its disgusting how us geniune student holders are being treated, particular those with families, also coming from part of the commonwealth aswell where maybe you would have thought would slighly go in our favour.

Hiya

($47,970/$37, 632)^(1/(2009.5-2003.0))-1 = 3.80%. Is good.
($59,532/$32,697)^(1/(2009.5-2003.0))-1 = 9.66%. Is not good.
