Re: Manners!
There's good and bad in every nationality. It's bloody unfair to tar everyone with the same brush

Re: Manners!
For a thread on manners this thread is getting rather rude. Can we please at least TRY and be polite!

Re: Manners!
How can anyone not like someone just because of their nationality
Jeez....there's some warped logic going on here, even more surprisingly as it's intelligent people
Take a reality check guys

Re: Manners!
Rather fancy the rain rather than the whinging at the moment. People losing their homes and we are worried about comparing individuals and generalising about manners??????

Re: Manners!
ZX [Aussie poster above] has never been anything but courteous, he's a lovely fella who happily joins in the banter. How could you be mean to someone who is so non offensive and likeable G

Re: Manners!
Actually it was me that moved it, reason being, as Sue posted on a thread yesterday, that we are trying to get the MBTTUK forum to return to being just that. This post was a discussion on manners in Australia. That is the reason why it was moved, nothing to do with "them and us", purely that it is a general thread about life in Aus.

Re: Manners!
The funny thing is, that this thread was originally posted on the 'Let's Have a Whinge About Oz' forum (aka Moving Back to the UK).
Sue moved it to the Barbie and quite politely pointed out that it was nothing to do with moving back to the UK (her post has disappeared in the meantime).
I suspect the whole point of posting the thread in the first place was so that all the anti-Oz people could get together and have one of their mutual whinge-fests. I very much doubt if it was meant for it anyone else's eyes at all....

yes, there are other things better to do with ones time rather than argue who you think is rude and who isnt, but, in some peoples opinions, they find australians lacking in the manners department. they are within their right to voice their opinion, as you all are. i am one of them. i will hold my hand up. i also find their staring unnerving. i do however realise that that i am not one to judge, as it is how it is in australia, and we are foreigners in their country..............i still find it grates me though
