You are currently in the UK so it seems.

If you wish to post & share your actual experience , you are free to do so. However please be aware that I am not at all keen on those that seek to scare others looking in or that that seek to simply trash an entire country.

No problem at all. Just a little odd for someone just joined to BE.

It all reads like research . Is it research?

perhaps it would of been better to actually introduce yourself, give a bit of background then ask the questions.

Problems with forums you get a few , shall we say unsavoury types that take up a lot of time and effort to moderate which leaves less time for the people that genuinely need advice.

Really?

You go on holiday to see family and then have time to register here and then to post to ask the above ?

So.

No-one is going to answer your questions - are you good folk of NZ . Thank you guys for that.

Instead , please do introduce yourself (yourselves) and tell us what brings you to this point that you wish to ask this of this community , rather than yourself and your own family and friends.

Sharing is all.

goodness me. yes I have a lot of time to register and ask people's experiences. I need to see if it compares with my experience. I am making a serious choice here.
I suggest this website employs moderators with better manners and grammar. I feel victimised after asking these questions. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
