Perth is clean and shite

Brisbane is muggy and shite

Adelaide is boring and shite

Melbourne is shite with good shops

All the best people live in Sydney and Wollongong

Nice one.

I live in Singapore but keep juggling my options between heading West to the UK or East towards Australia. Bournemouth vs Sydney. I'm more used to the UK, but prefer this part of the world and have way more family in Oz. I would still rate the standard of living as much higher in the UK, mainly due to the way of life, the high-street, the pubs, the press/tv, etc. That's what's lacking for me in Oz.

I think a strange but somehow accurate outlook that I have is that I would prefer to spend the first half of the day in Sydney, but once it gets dark I would prefer to be in Bournemouth.

The 'Neil Diamond dilemma' -

LA's fine, the sun shines most the time
The feeling is laid back
Palm trees grow and the rents are low
But you know I keep thinking about
Making my way back

Well, I'm New York City born and raised
But nowadays, I'm lost between two shores
LA's fine, but it ain't home
New York's home but it ain't mine no more
