It's more about day to day issues when you get here, than about the immigration process before you get here.

Indeed. See, he doesn't always talk crap Should perhaps be pinned at the top of Immigration if only because those starting out may not venture in here. Most start off in Immi.

Manyana is often the Aussie way of life, they could practically be French or Spanish if you didn't know otherwise.

Basically you have to get used to the fact they have "ways different to our own" even though it frustrates the hell out of you at first and you are left with Post Traumatic Stress and flash backs way down the line to the time when some simple UK task took five times longer in Aus.
