I'm planning on ultimately settling down in Oz, and I have the little certificate of citizenship with me, but when I start to do the application process it requires me to list "references" (I forget the term) who have known me at least 2 years and are Australian citizens and NOT family.

I've lived in the States half my life (England the other half) and I don't know any Australian citizens that are not family members. Is this even valid? Can I seriously not get my Aussie passport even though I'm a full-fledged Australian citizen just because I live outside Oz?

Can anyone with a similar experience/knowledge on the subject shed some light?

I am going to Tasmania and an old friend (now dead) from that island once told me of a mountain side that looks like a skull's face - I have already tried the official tourist web sites - no joy.

Any one know of this - he did say it was not well known (but that was 50 years ago).

Ok I am an 18 male Australian I am having trouble of deciding what I should do for a job now.

I should of probably went on a working holiday at a canadian ski resort but was too dumb to take up the chance this year, I guess I could go for summer and work at a resort and go to a job fair in winter. I should of even got a job in Australia at a ski resort but missed that too. Got to apply april for that

So ideas I am thinking now are whitsunday islands area (in QLD,AUS), apply to some resorts there, try a different program overseas through IEP, OWH or STA travel.

I just want to work as something I really enjoy and have the chance to meet new people. Things like ski lifty, ski instructor... but I can't think of summer jobs or other jobs so help me out please.

Fathers who suddenly turn up and want contact with their kids demanding heaps of rights...If they take you to court, what will happen, if they:
- tried to force abortion on you, and when that didn't work ran off
- had 7 visits to see the child lasting between 10 minutes and an hour in two and a half years
- did not talk to the child during those visits, play with him, or hold/hug him, but instead talked to you about non-child related things.
What sort of rights will the court give him?

Have lived on the Gold Coast for 7 months now and was wondering where in Australia we should visit as a possible place to settle down. We like the Gold Coast for the weather, surfing and beaches. We wonder if we can get those things somewhere else in Australia with other advantages thrown in?
