Telling others

So what about our friends and family? Do they know we’re leaving? Well, some of them know and some of them don’t. I guess we’ll send out a Season’s greetings e-mail containing this Blog. Some reactions so far:

• My sister: “That’s really cool!”, My sister is always happy and positive: great girl.
• A good friend: “That’ll be another holiday address.” A little Egoistic there mate :o)
• A friend: “Bollocks, you lucky bastard” The jealous type.
• A colleague: “So you’re going hump around with kangaroos” A dirty mind.
• My cousin: “Welcome, you’re going to love it here” He lives in Brisbane.

Quite a few said: “Hey! I’d like to do that as well.” or “I’ve been thinking about moving as well”. Amazing to hear this from people you wouldn’t expect to change their situation, house or job. I wonder what others will say.
