PMSL....
Ic is right, you will be there, p'ing off all the newbies before you know it. Those who are there already are jammy buggers though - I bet they sold their houses in rising markets and swapped their money at a good rate and bought their Aussie house before the prices shot up.
Makes you pig sick.![LOL](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/lol.gif)
Our turn will come!![Sunglasses](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/sunglasses.gif)

He's got it even worse than you Jenni - they took away Ivor's visa path last September and won't tell anyone if they are going to replace it....
Sending you positive vibes - hope they announce something soon.

well you only get out what you put in , i'm not off there to be rich , i'll do my best to get a pool , nice house that fits us .. but i wanna get away from that " my house is bigger than your house " attitude thats seems to be the norm in the UK . maybe its the norm there , i'll see . not fussed if my car is 2yrs old or 10 .
4/5 years ago the exchange rate hit 3AUD to the UK£ ( i think it was bout then ) , so who is jammy ? its par the course , if it feels right & you can afford the rate do it , you can't hang on & hope ... this time next year it may be at 2.5 ,, it may be at 1.5 ..
4/5 years ago the exchange rate hit 3AUD to the UK£ ( i think it was bout then ) , so who is jammy ? its par the course , if it feels right & you can afford the rate do it , you can't hang on & hope ... this time next year it may be at 2.5 ,, it may be at 1.5 ..
