How many, they're just a drop in the ocean. Believe it or not there are Aussies that don't like Australia. We often get asked why we'd want to live here.

So what's your point?

Why am I talking out of my arse? Because you met some discontented Londoners hence London must be crap.

AM you really are mildly amusing

Should he start posts about 'budgie smugglers' and his fat wife then? Judging by the intellectual content of your posts I would suggest this is something you do often.

London's a very big city Ast and very few people from there are cockneys, including myself and yes, I was born there.

It would follow then when you've walked the walk in perth for 2+ years as many of the people who have given you so much help and advice have post again. Maybe then you can say if they were talking out of their bottoms or not.

yes i did throw my rattle out the pram,but it wont happen again if people dont like it in oz then slate away,i have took on peoples opinions,learnt by it and to be honest now i dont give a siht...i wont defend oz again..people can make up their own minds...

IT'S NOT FACT!!! It's your own personal opinion of the place you live. Sixty million people live quite happily in the U.K they are quite content with their lives. Twenty live here in Australia and are equally as content with life. There's the odd few thousand, in both countries, that either feel the grass is greener or just fancy a bit of a change.
Yes I left the U.K nearly four years ago, my family didn't they still love the place.
If you feel the need to defend your decision to move by slating the U.K it's fine by me I really don't care as I live here and I'm happy here. What I object to is your suggestions that other people, who also choose to express their respective opinions, must be talking out of their arses. I find that insulting and derogatory.
Take heed, keep your posts free from personal abuse and/or insults I don't want to have to close a decent enough thread just because you result to a bit of name calling .
You really need that rattle on a string around your neck mate

England is a fantastic country, so is Australia.

Again what is your point?

You say london is shit because some cockneys you worked with said so.

Some on here say Australia is shit, must be true then.

Have you walked the walk in London?

I know you haven't in Oz yet feel qualified to comment, same with London I
expect.

Now do you think you could answer my question without being abusive

Most people emigrate after what 30/40 years in the UK, I dont think many have rose tints about the place after that sort of time.

What happens is after some time in the new country many realise what they thought was so terrible or unique to the Uk is a problem elsewhere too.

Or they might realise things they thought they wouldnt miss, that they do miss them. Or they might just have not appreciated what they had in the first place. More a shade of reality than rose.

Look, he comes from Brum, he'll think he's landed in paradise here. It's like comparing Buckingham Palace to The Bronx!
