been a lurker since 2002
i was born in wolverhampton. hated britain with a passion, hated weather, ect. wanted to move abroad to find that better life.
decided to move to southwest instead...(uk)..... damn! im 20 mins from beach, minutes from rolling countryside, minutes from wales!
loving it wouldt change a thing.
weather today for all you guys stuck in oz: 16 degrees, went to weston beach, absolutely packed, people everywhere ennjoying themselves.
dog walkers, hikers in shorts, donkey rides, kite flyers, jet skiers, candyfloss, ice cream!!!
we had chips, went to ASDA to buy salad and olives, ate on said beach.
just got back......best time ive had for YEARS. and in UK!
moral of story....ignore the miserable trolls on here, moaning about uk, when the problem isnt uk, its the individual/circumstance that they cannot deal with properly.

By the way, why did you hate Perth? I loved it from the moment I got off the boat in Fremantle but I couldn't get a job so I went to Sydney.

My love is hill running hiking for miles but the heat put paid to that
and when it was not 40 + it was pissing down for days on end, I also found the place boring and isolated, I love different cultures and foods and missed my walking trips to Europe which are so cheap with the budget airlines...Oz suits some people but as a young guy it did not suit me.....plus the night clubs can be dangerous man
seen more trouble in nightclubs in Perth in 2 years than I ever did back home.

There's some good bush walking in the parks around Sydney mind - Blue Mts - Royal National Park, generally lots of swimming in the rivers on the summer walks. Lots of climbing up and down stairs around Katoomba and Blackheath. I joined the Sydney Bush Walkers and they are almost identical to The Ramblers in the way that they organize walks at weekends.

This is one of the best times of the year (Feb/March) and we've just had a lovely weekend -- although mozzies are a bit of a problem already.
I think we have fewer flowers here too. When I went home last year, I saw that my mother, who lives in Devon, had probably every type of flowering plant in her garden that I have in south Texas, and more! I particularly miss the shrubs and flowers that just won't grow in the long hot summers or need a hard frost.
