As some of might remember my family and I am coming to Perth this summer
or winter (my summer, your winter) from 15 August to 9 September. We
have been planning our immigration for some time and are now coming to
live in Perth for a month as a final try out before taking the big jump
to OZ.
There are a couple of reasons for my post, as we are trying to secure
housing for the period mentioned above, we are hopefully looking at
splitting our time between the CBD and the beach. Right now were are
looking at these 2 places:
CBD - Mounts Bay Waters Apartment
http://www.mount-bay-apartment-hotel.com.au/
Beach - the Splanade Apartment in Scarborough
http://www.theesplanade178.com/
We really would like to take a house, at least at the beach.
Does anyone have an opinion of the places or suggestions for others?
Look at http://www.realestate.com.au/cgi-bin/rsearch.
The sticking point for me as a Mac Consultant is I will need to still
service my clients while here, so I need to have high speed internet
access while I'm in Perth. The apartment in Scarborough is willing to
install it. What would be the best service? I've seen mention of Big
Pond are there other that are more reliable?
Not wishing to start a flame war BUT here are what I tell my customers:
If no technical help is not important, IINET (I hate their tech support)
If you want reliable, Arachnet and Westnet are great, I can not vouch
for Highway1 as I have not used their service, but I hear great things
about them aswell.
Does anyone have an opinion about which air carrier to use when flying
to Perth from Melbourne? We have seen Quantas,of course, and also
Virgin Blue ???
Virgin blue is cheap, no frills, and if you are in cattle class and near
the back of the plane expect them to have sold out of food before the
trolly gets to you, you pay for everything on Virgin Blue. If you want
free stuff like drinks, food and nibblies then fly Qantas (I do ;)
Also I have subscribe the the iCal schedule for WAMUG, are the upcoming
meetings still 3 August and 7 September? If nothing is changed I will
be attending the meeting in September to meet all of you!!
Thank you for any information you can provide.
