David:

Hey congratulations on the move, Australia is a really beautiful place, and Perth is just STUNNING.
You know what, worrying about this is not going to change a thing, so relax bacause as long as you packed them properly, the chances are, that your beloved B&O will arrive in the country unscaved! Look on the bright side, you don't have any worries with converting voltage

I love it how David is always such a positive guy!

Well the Nemo family are generally from around the area I think!

depends how long it takes to fill the ship but probably 6 weeks or so - then will go into storage while we find somewhere to live (we go in 3 weeks and staking with in-laws intially). Are you sure Nemo is an Aussie? (you're right Marlin is my Avatar) - I thought it was just the turtles?

Fingers crossed for you Dylan. I had the same feeling when moving back from Milan, especially with an Italian driver at the wheel of the delivery lorry! However, Australia really is quite a move. How long will it take for your belongings to arrive?

Oh and did you also know Nemo is from Australia too (although I think it's Nemo's Dad, Marlin in your avatar)?!

Eeek.... I've just waved goodbye to our container of belongings making the long trip from London, UK to Perth, Australia.

Will the BL8000s make it though in one piece?
Will I ever be able to put the doors back on the BS3200?
Will the BL4500s succumb to mildew?
Will I ever find an Australian Mk1 PSTN base for our Beocom 6000s?
Will I see it all on the news washed up on the Devon coast (non-UK members - happened last year; container ship sank depositing loads of goodeys on the beach much to the joy of the locals)

Dylan (trying not to think about how likely the Beograms are to survive the trip) [:'(]
