Is It Just Me????
Is it just me or has somebody come onto this site with a big shitty negative stick and waved it about all over the place? I must confess to not having visited for a couple of months mainly due to the fact that i am working two jobs, one of which is my 'normal' job of train driving, the other being a cooks job so that i can qualify for a visa. I am working my tiny little nuts off here so that I, my beautifull wife and my equaly stunning little daughter can have a go and see what life holds for us in good old OZ. Its funny really, you know some of us really dont think we are going to Eutopia we just want to have one last stab at a new and challenging life somewhere totaly different from where we are now. I am 41 and to be honest, although not quite yet ready for the glue factory, I aint got long to be messing about at this game. I suppose what Im trying to say in my own little talk a load of bollox way is please give us your constructive and extremely helpfull thoughts and experiences but if you are only going to insult or just ramble on about crap this and crap that then dont waste your energy on it, you are better served using that energy to improve your situation if its that bad.
Ok rant over, wishing all of you who are trying to do this the very best of luck and have a very nice day.

Hi Nev Iam glad its not just me that thought there are lots of negatives at the moment.Although said before it is good to see from all the different folks from all aspects of life giving their opinions and views.
I am glad that expats is here as I have learnt so much and have finally taken off the rose tinted specs.Still going though as its gonna be worth it whether it works out or not.

You will be fine if you have family out in Oz already.Will you be going where they are?.
We will be totally on our own but pretty much that way now so it will, make no difference.
All the best.
