I don't pay - it's your privilege
And the main thing is - it's a happy house, bugger the trimmings

Thanks PB - I know you have a heart of gold really

With the number of Brits moving here it would be unrealistic to think everyone would like it. Luckily I'm one of those that love it to bits although I have been to parts of Australia where I think to myself "I'm so glad I never moved here from the UK" but I would not slag them off on here.
No matter how bad they are someone will love it & good on them.

Good luck to those that have settled well here but no shame in trying it & going back if it doesn't suit either.
What does annoy me though is people going back then slagging it off.

Aye but what a fantastic view from that cave. Not a bone in sight or maybe he tidied up.

Stone the crows, - Hey PB

You were right, Butler is infested with Homes West housing…

Old Bailey probably not changed much in three years, revamped with a new condom machine maybe…

Glad things are going well in UK, have a warm pint of Fosters on me.

Nice area the borders but I can see why Australia would seem better after being stuck up there , Jocklands not for me either

Did she? She used to go to my gym in the UK occasionally. I've given up the gym and just walk into the King's Tableland every day. I agree some of the Western burbs are pretty horrid... Don't live there though.
