I've noticed that even your fellow posters in the Gloom Room are a bit sick of you making everything about Australia.

Seriously, I have no interest in anything you say. You might as well direct your questions elsewhere

Still not managed to get the hang of the quote button then?

You became a complete parody of yourself on the Australia board...
100% pro UK, 100% negative Australia... and you were doing that long before you even moved back!
It pretty much invalidated any opinion you had... and you're still doing it.

To be honest mate, you sound like one of those sad poms who have never been outside the boundary's of their local parish before going on a two week vacation in a different country. And then spend the rest of their lives 'entertaining' the whole bar with their 'extensive' knowledge of that country...now do share some more of your extensive "knowledge" of Australia

Well in the 30 odd years of living in Australia it is fair to say I drove plenty of k's on Aussie 'highways' so definitely feel qualified to comment, having said that the initial comment was clearly tongue in cheek
