Cheers for all the advice, has given me a lot to think about. I will get the LAFHA but I wasn't clear how they calculate how much you get. Is it based on your actual rent and living costs or is it a fixed amount? also would nursery fees be covered?

I heard about cost of cars and was considering importing my 330i but seems a lot of hassle and after costs and what I might be able to sell it for it didn't seem worth doing.

I am with HSBC but they told me it costs £150 to set up an AUS account over here so I'll wait until arrive as my wife has her own

Am keen to live on north shore but in laws are in hurstville and it's likely I'll need to do frequent trips down to MEL so getting to the airport quickly is good

One other question- are there sim only iPhone plans and which operator has the best deals and network?

Thanks again!
