Re: The View From Your Window
Grayling's an ''interesting'' poster cos not only does he tend to bring people back down to earth and point out the drawbacks he has rarely ever been actually positive about Australia - to the point where we forget he is actually planning a move there and wonder what his principal reason is perhaps to the point of irritation.
That's all I would say.
We don't really know all his motives, or his opinions fully. He's not the only one, we all have a story to tell or hide or just choose not to mention.

Re: The View From Your Window
Think you summed up pretty well there. (Usual caveats about not really knowing the bloke/only read what he's said on here etc etc) - but I can't recall him saying a single positive thing about this country. Family here or not, you've got to wonder if it's that grim a place ... why not just come for extended visits and enjoy the myriad supposed benefits of cashed-up UK living ...
Because he only pipes up to lay the boot in ... and then drops off the radar for a week. Anyway - it begs the question - what have you chosen not to mention Badge?

er I've said it all. I know he had a son here, thats about it.
Look I think we're all as bad as each other at times.I tend to give the benefit of the doubt to the people coming over as they are making a move - its the whole point. They'll soon work it out.

Can't seem to sit still here, but the current view goes like this.
