Might seem a silly question but I am in construction and looking to get off the boat mid-November, I would do any job to start with, bar work, fruit picking etc. Also which city would be better for construction employment and rentals etc ?

Looking for a job in November?

Sit back enjoy the summer and take a look again in March... sorry.

(Perhaps construction is less seasonal than IT work? I dunno.. you might get lucky)

Mo=moustache.

as in Movember. It's a big thing round here, raising awareness of 'men's health' by growing a tash.
