House hunting
Just sitting here browsing through colour brochure of properties in the Gold Coast thank to my brilliant Next courier who has just returned from holidaying over there.
I want to go tomorrow. No chance of any work being done today now and will be finding my dream home.

Dotty may think Brissie has been glamourised, but has she tried living in Burngreave, Sheffield........dusty, very hilly, run down estates, damp/cold weather continuiously, pot holes everywhere. Some roads have not been resurfaced since the Italian POW's did them in the war. No fresh fruit and veg shops to be seen. Give me Brissie anytime.

To be honest most grim run down towns in England ( especially the ones up North ) Scotland and Wales are never going to compare with the Australian Capitals. I guess thats why so many people from the UK are chasing the dream.
Unfortunately they are still the same people when they arrive there with the same problems all be it with sun and swimming Pools.

England isn't bad, it has its ups and downs, and I am sure Australia is the same. Life is what you make it! Come on enjoy what you have today, tomorrow you'll be back in the UK and maybe you might miss what you had.
Jus a thought .....
