Because believe it or not Patrick 2007 not everybody loves Oz when they get there and, dare I say it, some people even prefer living in the UK - SHOCK HORROR!!!!!!!

R - that's great news - so pleased for you - back where you belong and back for your dear old Mum - bet she's pleased.

I'll keep Warehouse, Oasis, Next etc etc warm for youxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Those Expos fill your heads with bullshit. Oz isn't for everyone and it certainly wasn't for me.
Can't be bothered listing why, the simple answer is we prefer to live in the UK, sunshine isn't everything.

Can't believe Tracey W is home and now you are nearly back here too - all we need is to now get St George's Girl home and all will be well!!

I know everyone doesnt like Oz. I wasted 7yrs myself in backward N.Z. Just curious as why someone was homeward bound after seeing all the crap on T.V. here about Oz.

fair enough - sorry for snapping:o - it's just that you get quite a few smart arses who come onto this forum doing the whole 'why would you want to leave Oz when the UK is a right sh*it hole' thing, with the sole intention of winding peeps up.

I understand!! those TV programmes will obviously show the good about moving to OZ. If they showed the bad bits, who'd want to come?

They should ban them!

I live in Perth and although it is 'nice', that's it just 'nice'. Our lives were much better in UK, we had more money, more fun...so what's the point in staying here. When we retire we might come back, cause when we are older we might want to do 'nothing';)
