Not *who* but *what* are you going to miss the most about the UK? When you're sunning yourself on the beach in Oz, what will you really, really wish you could still have or be part of?

I'm going to miss the snow. Not that we have it often down here in the SW, but I do love it.

I will miss it when you get the first few winter evenings, but I only like the first two or three then I want some nice weather again and a traditional cold Christmas.

I'm going to miss Tesco Direct then secondly self scanning at Sainsburys. The thought of going back to loading up the trolley, unloading onto a conveyor belt, then loading it up again, then unloading it into the car, then carrying it into the and only then putting away, does not thrill me greatly.

Come to Victoria then: we have plenty of it, reliably every winter, only 2-3 hours drive from the City of Melbourne. You can ski, take an enchanted forest walking tour, & go snow-walking

Cheers
