*He makes the Midlands sound like a sub-tropical paradise (Australia!?), well has he WALKED through Handsworth in Brum or Hillfields in Coventry after dark, lately!?

I could go on and on but frankly, I carn't be bothered, think you get my drift...

That's a complete mare as well, I agree. Even the rat run I've resorted to is getting packed up with cars.

Most people in your situation just enjoy a one-time boost in status due to the equity they bring with them. After that, you may find that Australia is just as much a rip-off, over-taxed, etc, as the UK. Just as PC, too.
