Queensland does tend to attract them.........

Connection, if you click on the link to the Immigration Forum, you'll find loads of useful support without the 'rough and tumble' you'll find in here.

You need to first find out if you're eligible for a visa, if you use the link given to you by Rasen and down on the left hand side is a link to the Wizard to work it out.

Off topic, personally I love the weather and to me it is indeed 'great weather'.


Thanks

Don't move to Australia if you are a WHINGER.

You prefer ads to actual tv programmes

You like to drive slowly, yet aggresively

(In much of the country) You enjoy waking up in a cold house with condensation on the windows

You earnestly believe that you live in the best country in the world, yet have never or barely been abroad

You believe that people who rent houses and/or do not own a car are extremely abnormal

Does it? I've never attracted a foul mouthed red neck saffa before with a sense of humour bypass - so it's a first.
