I needed to buy a new TV not to long ago, so I specifically purchased one where you could choose what country you lived in under the tuning menu. Australia was there along with probably every other country I could think of, I double checked with Samsung who said the Digital tuner will work fine in Australia, however the Analogue wont. Which is fine by me.

Perhaps becaause the search facility isn't working properly at the moment you may find questions that have been asked previously being asked again. I wanted to ask something that had been asked before because of the search not working but I didn't dare.

Yes it is exactly the same as the UK only much sunnier and cheaper to live here, in fact you don't have to work at all you just sit on the beach.
Everyone is very friendly and you can leave your car and home unlocked as there is no crime.
Drivers are so courteous especially in car parks. It only ever rains at night so as not to spoil the days. The locals all love the British, in fact they will listen for hours to your stories of how great the UK is and apologize profusely that their country lacks some of the necessary grocery items that you relied on from the mother country.
The C word is banned and the F word is only allowed to be used after dark and in the company of adults.
Am I right?

uhh - You forgot about the endless games of golf with executive highfliers and the government issued 'soccer mom' kit for every woman in the country (prada sunglasses and a 4x4 too big to drive properly).
