Think you take this far too serious and I don't like being called a liar and having my lifestyle and intelligence questioned simply because someone who was astroboy-bradley-and/or australian2008 had the same birthday as me. Really not on people
Actually I only mentioned it to Fiona & Malc - but it would appear a few other people thought the same thing without me mentioning anything, so I don`t think you can say it`s all my fault. I think you`ll find people can be very friendly and helpful on here but it`s spoiled by people trolling (it tends to make people suspicious).

I think she got her "that" and "is" the wrong way round

Personally not convinced about the denial but will apologise if proved wrong.

Me too - I`m always happy to admit to being wrong if that is the case, I think I`m normally very friendly to new joiners and always try to give out karma & stuff and advice (if I know an answer)

Your previous post mentioned rude things being said on here and then listed a comment about the schools. I just could not understand why you felt that comment was rude. I thought it was quite amusing

But.......

Enough is enough!
The, "Perth weather" thread seems to be the straw that's broken the Camel's back with me!

I'm totally fed up with the constant moaning, whinging and bleating of some of the people on this site who have made the move and are now living in Australia.

I reckon that the majority of Oz migrants on BE are quite happy in their adopted country.

Then we have the others who constantly come on this forum to bore the rest of us all to sleep about why they are not happy with Australia!

I have news for you sad people!

In Australia:

We are foreigners! (Just as much as immigrants from any country other than the UK are foreigners.)

It's not the UK, only a bit warmer!

There is no such thing as Marks & Spencer, Sainsburys, etc.!

Supermarkets stock things that are popular in Australia. End of story!

It's not sunny every day of the year! We need lots of rain or we'd all die!

Aussie Rules Football borders on a being national religion. Association Football doesn't!

Born and bred Australians are generally very nice people. They just don't like hard of thinking individuals who constantly moan about everything Australian not being what they expected!
____________________________________________

Honestly, some of the petty crap I've read on this forum, posted by the, "moaning, whinging brigade" leaves me cold!

It's a privilege to be in the situation where you have enough points to emigrate to Australia in the first place. There are a lot of good people in the UK who would give their right arm to be able to get permanent residency in Australia, but can't!

To people who have been fortunate enough to get PR in Australia and then want to constantly moan about it, I'd say, "Bugger off back to the UK!"
You're a total social embarrassment to the rest of us!!
Do what I do most of the time.....JUST DON'T READ IT. It's really quite easy to avoid the arguments or whatever else going on on BE.

Dunno. Maybe it's rude to call someone a duck

Okay with you now.

The line I put in was in the style of scossie's original post - but was referring to previous posts where people have been complaining about the aussie school system and how their children are going to fall behind their UK counterparts (and some people have even said that they will send their kids to UK bording school to avoid this).

Personally, I have found that there is no difference between the intelligence or otherwise of Brits and Aussies.

Cheers

Well done scossie. There seems to have been a lot of people on here recently jumping on people (as being rose tinted) just because they post something positive, or worse, they dare to challenge some misrepresentation.

It appears to be okay to post something rude and misleading like: "The Australians specialise in giving the wrong information. Its not just centerlink but almost every official body we have had any dealings with. But you do eventually chill out... ", but as soon as someone challenges it (either because it is rude or because it is misleading), they are labeled "rose tinted".

Another one to add to your list would be:
The school system is different, but the kids that come out of the end are just as intelligent/dumb as the ones that come out of the UK system.

A
OK....I had to go back to page 6 just to find what we are talking about
If you look at the message above, in the Another one to add to your list bit at the end kirsty&al gives a statement made about the school system.

I was not trying to be offensive, just trying to ask why it was felt that was ' rude and misleading'. I just thought it was a light hearted and quite amusing comment....but I am now going to crawl back under my rock before i get chewed up completely
