Re: Why Do You Want To Go Back?
Completely unreasonable posts Cricket! As Kevin has stated, you DID ask the question and he gave his honest opinion - that is what this forum is for! You don't have to agree with it, it is what it is. I have also heard you post remarks about Australians in the past (lazy, don't want to turn up for work?) so you can't have it both ways. I think you really need to get over yourself. There is a lot of support in MBTTUK, even though we do not always agree with each other, we are all here because we have/want to move back, our reasons may differ, but our objective is the same - why start building arguments and resentment, most of us get enough of that from other people who cannot understand our decisions!!!!
BTW - I actually laughed out loud at some of Kevins comments (some of which I think may have been a little tongue in cheek!) and would like to add one more - I HATE THE F****ING FLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!! (does that make me bad?

)I may have stated that I have found the locals lazy and that it's been hard to get anybody to commit to work. But I would have also stated that I live on the Gold Coast and as such this place is a holiday resort where the main aim is to be lazy and do as little as possible. In this case I am in the wrong place, not the locals. I have not made personal attacks or generalised on the the Australian public as a whole and the only reason I want to return to the UK is because of business reasons not because I dislike the place or have a problem with the people.
In fact, when I first came here, I wrote a book on Australian architecture and design. Given the fact the country is only 200 years old, as a population, they have made amazing progress. Their perseverance and their ability to triumph over adversity in an extremely hostile climate is a tribute to them.
Despite my hardships and difficult experiences here, I can exit this country with profound gratitude and admiration for my opportunities here without the need to cast blame by making the excuse that i had to leave Australia and head back to Britain because it was someone else's fault that i couldn't make it here.
I can see where the whinging pomme reference comes from and it does not make me proud to think that some of you have to make the excuse of trying to be superior over another because it's you that's the problem not them.
If you've got any further issues, tell Lifeline. Apparently they care.

I can only hazzard a guess that it can be quite hard to see when you're that far up your own arse!I really don't know what your problem is, but I bet it's hard to pronounce
Now - where's that Lifeline number......................

Re: Why Do You Want To Go Back?
Firstly - Private message are exactly that, private. If you wish to say something on the forum, say it on the forum. Posting of private messages is against the rules.
Next - Go read the sticky thread HERE
Cut out the bitching, backbiting and snide comments. If you can't be tolerant and polite, then go somewhere else.
This is the third time I have said this in the UK forum in a week. Temporary bans will be issued soon to people who repeatedly ignore the request.
