Where abouts is meadow springs? Hope you are starting to settle in ok - i think Rockingham is a great place for letting the kids run around and enjoy the beach

Hello - do you ever get over to the Gate for a beer or two?

yes it should be fine - not sure if it will work with aussie games though? We brought our Xbox and its no problem You will need an adapter to plug it in though

Also - just as a side question. When we were in Rockingham, ABC for kids ran up until about 7pm with its childrens shows. We have since moved closer to the city and ABC for kids isnt available after 4pm. Any ideas why?

Are you guys not aware of a set top box that allows you to get all of the SKY channels - im pretty sure the reason i cant get mine working is because we are in the southern hemisphere, but there must be a way around this these types of boxes are in abundance in the UK, so im sure the aussies have got something similar?

Hi all, is anybody aware of any options to be able to view sky channels over here? In the UK I had a Blade Online Internet box which enabled you to pay a very small subscription and view till your hearts content i have subscribed to foxtel but their coverage of the English football doesn't come close the sky plus I'm missing match of the day big time i don't think my box works in the Southern Hemisphere - but surely somebody has found a way around this?

Just trying to bump this thread for you I'd like some info on this too

Hello, may have gotten onto this thread a little late, but I'd be interested. I play guitar and have some experience of gigging in and around Manchester. Only been here three weeks so my gear is still on the ship. Fingers crossed it comes through unscathed!

I agree - I grew up with cheese and onion being green packets and then walkers had to go against the grain didn't they! I don't think even walkers would have the audacity to stick a pink packaging on anything other than prawn cocktail though

Hi @gar374 - I contacted O2 and got my phone unlocked (for free thankfully). I have been told to plug this into iTunes to complete the unlock. My computer is still on the shipping container - so, I am able to plug this into any bodies iTunes? I know this might be a daft question, but I'm pretty dim in regards to phone technology thanks

Hi all, not long since arrived in this beautiful country and have been noticing some of the quirky differences over here. how about a fun thread discussing those? It may have been done before, but I haven't seen it it so....... Pink packets for salt and vinegar? Come on!!!!!!

That's excellent thanks for that. Will give it a go

Hello, just wondering if anybody knows how to go about unlocking phones? i brought my iPhone over from the UK but didn't get it unlocked, D'oh! Been quoted mega bucks to unlock it, but surely there's an easier and cheaper way?

Nearly here now isn't it. We've found things have been going quite well until a couple of days ago, now it's all a bit rushed. Feels like we are taking far too many suitcases and in hindsight we could have put far more clothes on the container will keep an eye out for @Roadhouse in the airport good luck all!

Good luck with everything We are on a similar time frame to you. And the exact same time frame as Roadhouse Has your stuff been shipped off yet? Ours gets packed up on Monday, so that's another thing ticked off the massive list of things to do
