Re: reasons for living IN austraila
My main reason for living in Australia is that my husband and girls live here. I'd be damned miserable somewhere else because I like living with these people.

That he'd moved from Bunbury to Rockhampton. That's fighting talk that is.

Re: reasons for living IN austraila
Hey J_B, how's it going? Havent been in touch with you for ageeeeeees.....
Reasons for living here: Space A decent size house with a reasonable mortgage, not a shoe box and no money at the end of every month to have a life!!! Weather - DD can play outside for 95% of the year Laid back lifestyle - that feeling of "i'll do it tomorrow" rather than "must do it today, rush, rush, rush..." DH working less but getting paid more In general we have a far better life here, there is no way I'd be able to give up work to look after our two kids in the UK, we had a pretty small mortgage there (half what we have here) and yet never had any money to spare and that was with us both working full time - in fact DH worked more than full time, he did a minimum 60 our week there. |

hi i seen the post earlier about reasons not to live here c'mon guys what the heck are you all on you say its dear you say all the whinging poms and scots e.t.c.
my posiive view is beach sun the people aussies are very welcoming helpfulfull if your genuine so will they be. if you have kids no better place to bring them up sports god even go surfing with school. tell me would you rather hwinge over there or here think about. i never thought about that other post they were saying they didn't like all the whingers well all of those people on that page what are they doing they are all whinging aren't you. Shops are better in Australia. Indian restaurants are better in Australia. AFL is superior to soccer. Australian bands are better than British bands. Australian TV is better than British TV. I'm sure there's more. |

Anyway, dont want to hijack the thread - will PM you my email addy as would love to hear what's been happening to you. Oh, and Moneypen - think it was Rockingham not Rockhampton! ;) |
