Blue 1870, thanks for reply. Its still early days so we didnt want to challange the package too much. We were unsure if companies included school fees, housing allowance etc in a package. There will be discussions next week so we wanted to get all the questions out of the way before that. Any advice you have we will gladly accept. We owe you a drink when we get out there, I see you are British so is my husband, we will have to cook you a British fare by way of thanks.
