We really need someone on this forum like NIceGuy on the NZ one - he is offering to give people who are unhappy a free lift to the airport to get home :D

Hey Sally don't be offended by that remark, the guy must have had an inferiority complex, but there's hope for him yet as he must be incredibly perceptive also. :D

Had bugger all problems on the decent side of Oz either. The OP's a troll - probably a regular poster who felt unable to let rip with their main username and made one especially for the occasion. This thread will die on its arse unless one of the 'Australia is full of Australians and isn't at all like the Algarve' numpties shows up to breath some unwanted life into it.

hahahahahaha

All the more reason for us Brits to head over there, start businesses and 'clean up'!!!! :p

I worked with a load of queensland country lads and abos for a couple of months a few years ago on a bannana plantation and i used to get loads of stick but tbh if you take it in jest and give them a bit of stick back it's all good, just beware if they're a proper mean bastard whose likely to clobber you though :ohmy: :D

also spent some time on a farm in longreach, again you get loads of greif but generally once they get to know you it's all good.
