Come on, lets have a moan!
 

In light of recent bouts of severe negativity, I have decided (for a bit of fun, and reality check) to start this thread. If you would like to join in and clear the air by finding fault with either the UK or NZ, then please feel free to criticize away.
Please remember though, when you have your moan, by indicating at the start of each post which country you wish to tear to shreds. To help, I will start you all off;

UK
1. At the petrol station today I put £44/$110 of diesel in a tiny car (you call them an echo in NZ)
2. For my 3 ½ bedroom home I pay £1830 / $4566 council rates (refuse collection) per annum


You get the idea……………………

3. Go to this property link http://www.rightmove.co.uk/ and type in between £200- 225,000 for a house in the area I live in Lewisham (S E London) and see what you can get for your money. :scared:
4. Go to the Open2view site in NZ and see how they compare....... :(

NZ - Brits recently arrived are seen as ready/ easy rip-offable material by tradies.

Please post which beaches you use - I'm sure my pooch can oblige :)

In NZ that scooter would've been on Trademe before you'd had a chance to photograph it :D .
