...it's too far from Selfridges. (I mean the proper Oxford Street one, not the token satellite stores based in poor areas like Birmingham and Manchester).

Fortunately my "life partner" Ian sends me hampers once a month (he's still in the UK, pending ecstasy smuggling charges).

I'm taking the OP's sentiment very seriously... If he has just returned from the UK then he's probably feeling a bit miffed with his Australian situation and this is a post he could not resist..

..maybe he is seeking out like-minded people, or people he can disagree with.

Anyone taking bets to see who, and how long it will be before it all gets angry...

Don't worry, the government says they will introduce more stabbings to help the East End folks feel at home.

..because the minority of people who don't like living here, finding themselves trapped for one reason or another, seem to be unable to accept that the majority do. Whereas the majority don't really mind that the minority don't.

Starting to brew nicely...

For Christsakes - noone say anything positive about Australia. Let's all stay focused and negative. It will save the OP in raiding the medicine cabinet.
