PMSL BB that would take a lifetime !!

To be honest, most of it doesnt bother me. I expect to hear the good and the bad about the place, afterall, its a fact we arent perfect. I only get uptight when people go OTT.

yup...came to that my conclusion myself.

a sign of success is probably less frequent posting on this forum and just using it to keep up to date with mates.

If enough people keep complaining about what they dont like about OZ then 3 things will happen:
  1. those who read this forum wont leave the UK,
  2. a lot of people in OZ, that may be fence-sitters, will convince themselves that all is bad and will return,
  3. good things/ bad things or like/dislike whinges/discussions will become a thing of the past.

Those living in OZ and ignorant of this forum will just get on with life.

Why?? Do you think I might have hyped it up too much and made it sound better than it is? Maybe I should tone it down a bit and add some of the social problems it has too.

Oh I do, I do, I do, I do, I do.

If I'm making enough money in a few years time, Arkon chuck, I'll buy it off you.
