"Come to sunny Australia for £10!" Who could resist such an invitation? Certainly not newly-weds Sandra and Geoff, who were just two of the thousands of migrants leaving the UK in the sixties and seventies to travel to the other side of the world to begin a new life in Australia, full of high hopes and expectations. Follow their journey from Leicester in the Midlands to Perth in Western Australia, sailing from Southampton via Las Palmas in the Canary Islands and Cape Town in South Africa, and then overland from Perth to Melbourne in the State of Victoria. Their journey began in Southampton in December 1967 - a 25-day voyage aboard the migrant ship 'Fairstar', with cramped sleeping quarters, but good food and entertainment, and the chance to make life-long friends. Follow their struggle to find work and a permanent home to raise a family, while learning about the places they lived and the people they met in Australia. Share in their joys and sorrows, and read of the reasons for their difficult decision to return to Britain ten years later.
