Thank goodness for that.

Seriously though, lets just pretend for a minute that the OP was serious and genuine, if he was then everyone is just a bunch of ar**holes. He sounded a bit slow to me and we all looked at him and laughed then took the piss. On the other hand it might have been one of you with an alias having a laugh. Even so shouldn't we always err on the side of caution with people with a few posts to their name just in case they are real. Everyone makes a pigs ear out of their 1st few posts before they realise the politically correct way to structure a post.

Oh right. So saying something like:
i want to leave england as i am fed with council tax winter living with so much imigrants...
...is the first posting of someone who's a bit 'slow' is it? I personally couldn't give a shit if that was said by one of the 20K posts club - I'd still treat such sentiments with the contempt they deserve...

Aus working hours are generally shorter than UK.

You may have one issue there though ....where to park your spaceship

Right, good idea, and scare off another potential contributor to BE. I think you need to cut the newbies some slack, then there might be a little less friction on here.

Don't care whether Mervyn is the real deal or not, I think he's priceless. His postings, albeit intentionally or not, have given me the best laugh I've had in ages.

I'm thinking of starting 'Luurving Meryvn' Fan Club in his honour - anyone else want to join?
