I read the title & thought it was going to be someone who supported Brexit under WTO rules (aka Australian deal).
Haha!

Welcome Ehlan I bet all the grans over here with family in Oz will be delighted to hear any news from Down Under!

My sister, her husband, my niece and nephew live in Sydney. My brother, his partner, ex wife and my two nieces live in Sydney. One niece is married and expecting my first great nephew next year. A cousin and his family live in Melbourne. My sister usually visits the UK every year and another niece was due to be married in France next July. They will probably delay it until 2022.
