Have you ever being to Australia. Regarded as one of the drug centres of the world. As for opportunity - there are lots of people who arent in mining who are losing their jobs at a fair old rate that might disagree with you.

The UK's drug problem is minute compared to Australia and New Zealand. Big difference between cocaine and meth.
Where do you get this shite from? |
Re: IS IT REALLY THAT BAD OUT THERE NOW THEN
============
A gram of pure cocaine cost US$137 in September, up from US$93 last year, and meth jumped from US$133 to US$245. (2007) ============ It might be worth giving up the bananas. |

He has a point. I had to walk over to deceased druggies on my 3 minute walk to the station this morning. And was mugged by another druggie between the station and work. Don't even get me started on all the needles on the ground everywhere.

Re: IS IT REALLY THAT BAD OUT THERE NOW THEN
I used to be able to guage how far I had to go on my walk into work from Clerkenwell to London Bridge by the vomit stains, urine puddles, and the position of the drug addicts in the subways. Too clean around here - I miss a bit of squalor here and there!

Re: IS IT REALLY THAT BAD OUT THERE NOW THEN
Having just moved over to Sydney, I can say the prices in comparrison are high at present, food especially, you can shop around but in general the food prices are 2 to 3 times that of back home, obviously the wages are also higher, but that first month when your here with the uk wage before the aussie pay is a real struggle, cans of drink say are back home 60p and here the same cans are basically £2, rent is around £600 a week in general and you'll have to really search for a bargain. Museums charge for entry, there is no NHS so you'll be paying for health insurance etc... So in comparison or if you were coming just for a holiday its very pricey. But when your on an Aussie wage its comparable again.
