Glasgow punters?
Just thought i would see how many of yo guys are out there planning the big move or who have already gone? we havent got a clue where we will end up.
Mybrother stays in coogee,Sydney whichis a really nice place but FAR to expensive for us, we have thought about almost everywhere from Perth to Adelaide to Melbourne but,i think its going to or got to come down to where the work is.
Any thoughts or comments on this

Hi,
Me an myfamily were inCoogee, Sydney for 5 weeks,came back the second week February, we love it there but the house prices are way above what we could afford.
Perth seems to be the best bet for this but its down to the work available, I`m a solid plasterer to trade

I like going through the country side of Scotland, but, I hate my job as a bus driver, the kids are out of control in some places of Glasgow. Had a group of kids spray a fire extingisher into my eyes the other night, lucky it was only water. And 1 of my colleagues had a group of kids take to him with a baseball bat. But, I'm looking at returning to Australia in August so hopefully I can stay out of trouble long enough.
Thanks for correcting me on my spelling, not 1 of my best subjects, spet more time fooling around and trying to hit on the chicks than paying attention to the school work, but, I get by.
Are you heading to Oz?

What did you tell them you were American or South African not much of a choice . All I ever got was a confused expression on their faces when I spoke to some Ozzies!!
Going by your experiences with the locals in Glasgow you obviously got the posh bus routes to drive, I hope you get danger money.
Stay safe for the remainder of your time in Scotland and be thankful that the kids did not spray you with natures own fire extinguisher.
BTW yes we are Oz bound (Perth) in the near future ca wait
ps The still game starts next month I think
pps dinna worrie aboot yir spellin cos Im shite anna
