Well I can't unzip, extract or do anything as it still says it is corrupted. :scared:
Never mind, I've met enough T*****S to last a lifetime so not seeing another one is no loss really.

[QUOTE=Luke I Amyofath]Yes, personally I believe Im the worlds biggest tosser
What I find here is people coming to oz from the uk and they maintain the brit mindset, forever comparing every life situation to a liken uk one
Firstly.. AMEN to the your first paragraph.. Its probably why you can't put down any roots and settle.
Secondly when you arrive in a new country to live, human nature compares your new life with the old... What else makes you feel pleased with the decision to move or deciding you have made a mistake... Allow people to have that one freedom, and maybe a moan and a gripe here and there its what they have worked hard for.... Hey and if you don't like it then switch off buddy cos who needs the opinions of a self proclaimed TOSSER anyway

Like yourself, Im entitled to have an opinion, I didnt ask if anyone wanted mine no more than you asked if anyone cared for yours
As for not putting down any roots.... Ever hear of employment that takes you out of a boring office ?

What I find here is people coming to oz from the uk and they maintain the brit mindset, forever comparing every life situation to a liken uk one when they should be embracing their new life (one they strived for many a month or year)
Oz is not the best country in the world but if you dont like it f off to some other country if you reckon it'll make you stop whingeing
