How many People from ADELAIDE / SOUTH OZ?

[hampster 0]

Hi all,

Just thought I'd find out how many Peeps are from Adelaide, South Oz.. :energetic:

How many Peeps are still in South Oz?

We are waiting for NVC TO SEND MY WIFEE (NORTHERNGIRL - CHERYL),

THE PAPERWORK, AFTER THEY RECIEVED THE IV BILL.

They recieved the IV BILL AND PAYMENT 7TH DECEMBER 2006

We where told THE DS - 230 PAPERWORK, was sent December 15th from NVC..

And my wifee (NorthernGirl) lives in Massachusetts.

So we thought maybe 5 working days to get it sent out.

But..NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, nudda nothing zip jack schit as yet.

Anyway's I did my National Police Clearance(WITH FINGERPRINTS)

Another LONG STORY

Did it on 7th December 2006.. got a call from Police saying,

it's ready to be picked up.. I originally Arranged to pick it up from,

Para Hills Cop Shop.. So I go there to pick it up and they said,

What National Police Check and Fingerprints?

So they called Records Clearance in Adelaide Central Cop Shop,

and they said oops it was sent to Golden Grove Cop Shop,

as Para Hills Cop Shop will be closed for good on 15th January 2007,

And Golden Grove has replaced Para hills.

So I go Drive to Golden Grove ( 41 Celcius day mind you)

And I pick it up and drive home.. thinking all good..NOT

I get home and check both Police Clearance and then Fingerprints,

and you wouldn't believe it when I read it.

THEY PUT THE WRONG HOUSE NUMBER ON BOTH FFS!!

SO I POLITELY CALLED THEM ( RECORDS CLEARANCE),

AND TOLD THEM OF THEIR FUBAR!!!!!

They said no probs just bring it back to Golden Grove Cop Shop,

Mind you when i originally paid for the checks to be done,

I was living in Salisbury East..

now moved to Novar Gardens (Near Glenelg Beach).

The Saga continues..

So i go up to Golden Grove to pick it up a 2ND TIME..

On the way way there it was sticky weather and about 37 C.

and then it started to rain.. all good one would think..NOOOOOO

I Got to Golden Grove cops shop about 8.30pm and opened my ,

Police Clearance and they changed the House Number on that ok.

I was about to walk out and go home and thought best check fingerprints

and what did I find They didn't change the number on that form..

By that time I was ....

SO I TOLD THE SENIOR CONSTABLE,

THAT THEY BETTER GET IT RIGHT THIS TIME..

SO HE USED EVERY HIGHLIGHT PEN HE HAD (6) AND USED CAPITAL BOLD

LETTERS TO INFORM RECORDS RELEASE OF THEIR FUBAR..

SO WILL FIND OUT PROLLY TUESDAY WHEN I GET THE CALL,

TO GO PICK IT UP FOR THE 3RD TIME

OK my rant is done...

Has anyone from Adelaide done their blood testing and Innoculations,

prior to seeing

Dr David Miller

183 Tynte Street, North Adelaide – 1^st floor, suite 8?

Ok will post this and hopefully I'll get some feedback..

To one and all Be safe Be Happy and Treat everyday as a gift.

Cheers

Paul

Hey Hampster!!!

Im not sure and have to check with hubby on this one, but I BELIEVE that he started his immunizations before he had his medical and did his blood testing with his regular doctor and then they had to write a letter to Dr miller stating what he had done etc. Like I said, I will check with him tonight and PM you some time tomorrow!!

Im not sure of anyone still left in adelaide, but Scotts from there and there was a few other VJ couples, though the names escape me at the moment.....

Hi Mellie and Scott

Well as i posted on here earlier.. will have extra blood taken to find out if i do actully need the other innoculations..as i have had tetnus/dyptheria when i was having operations in august 06.

as long as the labratory print out results and my g.p can then write a letter with proof that innoculations have been done,

or if they need not doing depends on return of blood work being done.

id you recieve the pm with my email addy

if not just pm me and we can share email addies.

ok will wait to hear from you soon, say hi to scott for me :energetic:

gday hampster,

sorry to hear about your police certificate problems...I went to bank street in adelaide to file it...then walked over to city watch house to have finger prints, then walked to main police station , where they told me to walk it over to the FBI or whatever type building ( Divet place? i know you've done it, might help someone else!)around the corner where my fingerprints would marry up with my application. Had it 5 days later...

I saw Dr Miller in October... met Joan first..she told me to make appointment downstairs for xrays, then sent me around the corner, ( 2 minute walk) to have blood taken for HIV, etc...plus a request for immunity for the shots I knew Id had. ( she wrote the request forms herself)At that time she gave me an appointment with dr miller for 2 weeks later. I only needed Tetnus. I went over to travel bug on ward street to have the vaccination.

2 weeks later , I had my appointment with , xrays , and vaccinations in hand, by then all the bloodwork had been sent back to Dr Millers office. ( HIV, Syphilis, and proof of immunity etc...) The medical itself took maybe 15 minutes...

good luck...and enjoy the heat! its 2c here today..and I have to wait on train platforms....Id give anything for 30 something weather!
