Hi all from Adelaide

My wife and our family are thinking of moving to Scotland in 6 or so months time, probably around the Fyfe area, to care for an older relative

We have a two and a half year old daughter, and are looking at a completely fresh start

We are apprehensive about moving to a newcountry and culture but believe it to be rewarding

but any hints tips or just basically rundowns of everyday life in Scotland would be appreciated to give us a heads up

Even down to are there large scale supermarkets, or are there small market style shops, these are the things we are worried about (well im a little worried about not enough sport on tv, but my wife has more practical concerns)

Thanks in advance

Mick from Australia

If you look in the 'Moving' forum here, many of the questions you might have will have already been asked and answered!

Supermarkets? It all depends - if you are intending to live in a large town or city, then the supermarkets will be bigger than most of those I've visited in Australia! In country areas, however, there may be small co-ops, but you may have to travel to the nearest town to get a fair-sized shop. Mind you, being an Aussie, you won't think our distances are worth mentioning...!

BTW - the 'Kingdom' is FIfe, not FYfe!

I'm assuming you must have dual nationality if you intend to settle here.
