:Already been offered $50000 a year mate so like every other post yer talking out yer arse!! And as for calling me a waster! There's an expression here that has the words a a pan and a grimy arse in it. What pub do you drink in cos I can't wait for you to buy me a cold one, the amount of money you earn.:beer: :beer:
$50k here after tax will give you about $35k take home , not a great wage even in Australia , we earn well over $110k a year between us here and thats just about liveable .
If you can only earn 14K in the UK it shows what you are worth not a lot , neather is your bull , what you will earn will not allow a trip to the Pub so I would have to buy you a drink.

PS I may talk out out my arse I am sure you are one add the word hole and if it suits wear it.

Having lived and studied in Leicester I can understand why he's got such a jaundiced view on life. If ever a place could be held up as a bastion of Political Correctness, it has to be Leicester City Council!!

And he has the nerve to call Perth the arse end of the world.

Never lived in Leicester Pal , but did in Leicestershire which is rampant Tory and as right wing as you can get , we had Mr Tredinit as MP(David Tredinnick Con).
The only black face I ever saw was around the City , unlike Perth which has more Abos than whats good for it , the Asians are ten times better than these wasters.

I just need to say one thing: maybe Pommie Bastard's problems with life and jobs in Australia can be attributted to the fact that he doesn't write in English. Maybe he can speak the language, but from his posts here all I can say is he should be glad that Brits don't have to take IELTS, or he'd never have immigrated for starters.

The other problems are certainly because with such a nice and agreeable personality, he must be a joy to work with.

My posts are clipped so what I am at work and this is just entertainment , I have never had a problem getting work and I would bet had more points than you to get a Visa most of my points came from education and qualifications , I was one of the few that have a nurse as a wife that did need require to use her points, dream on .
No problems life or with jobs which I have had more offers than I bother to list both here and in the UK , the only problem I have is stuck in a nowhere place like Perth that will end soon.
Good people like yourself do make me smile , clueless and niave.

11 Plus !! that shows your age.

I went to the comprehensive just as they started the new teaching method of "you could do what you liked" I chose to bugger off and skive down the town. !!

Sounds like the Australian method tell your teacher what you want to do and he will sort it .
The Grammar I went to started to let girls in around 1901 very modern also before I left turned into a comprehensive which seemed a better idea stops envy.


An advertisement appeared on the 19th January 1901 stating that Hinckley Grammar School was to be a mixed school. The Grammar School was to open after the Christmas Holiday to GIRLS as well as boys. There would be special arrangements for their accommodation.
