Re: Sydney Opera House

I guess it depends on what you're going to see...

I went to see Altan, some weeks ago, and I was wearing jeans and t-shirt. They let me in without any problem. :)

Re: Was it worth it?

Every minute of it. But this was *my* choice.

The fact that you have so many doubts might be an indicator that maybe this choice is not for you...

Re: The Migrants Guide to Emigrating and Settling in Australia

Yes, you do... I had my very own first close encounter of the huntsman kind just the other day.

I was sitting at my PC just like now and, lo and behold!, there came the spider, crawling on the...

Re: Thoughts of an Australian in the UK

I actually already visited Sydney in June 2002 :) , it was my "rekky" before deciding to apply for the visa, so no problems of "rose-tinted glasses", here ;). This is something that has been growing...

Re: Thoughts of an Australian in the UK

I don't know... I guess every country has its positive and negative sides... however, I am rather sure Australia can't be worse than Italy.

We used to be a great country. We have gradually...

Re: Possible citizenship changes?

If they do decide to increase the residence time to 4 years, I do hope they do like New Zealand: for PRs before "such date" is still 2 years, for PRs after such date is 4 years... at least people who...

Re: Sydney housing, my story

I'm from Italy and here people would want to buy rather than rent, actually. The reason is that once you own your house, nobody will kick you out. But houses are incredibly expensive, Sydney prices...

Re: Where you from ?

Born in Milan, Italy, but my whole family comes from Sardinia, so I'm more an Islander than a Continental :) (I don't even speak the Milanese dialect! :D )

Re: Jackson verdict !

Re: Queensland Beat NSW in State of Origin Thriller!
