You will be considered Resident/Ordinarily Resident for income tax purposes in the UK throughout 2010/11. But, any tax paid in Australia will reduce any tax bill you might have. When you start work, complete a form P86 and send it to your employer's PAYE office. They will want to know what you earned in Australia and the tax deducted so keep records.
Hope this helps.

I am very naive, I just thought you paid tax in the country you live in........

I'm not saying you would pay any tax. But your pay in Oz & tax would be taken into account when assessing your tax bill in England. Get back there girl and, if you get a tax bill, send me an email. I'll help. Also I'm in Chaster again this May. I can see you if you want. I actually prefer your plan A. There's nowt like the North.
Stop panicking.
