Re: What Is 'Cheap' In Australia Compared To The UK?

Well we are much younger than 70 and it wasn't raining when we were there, sounds as though we were very lucky if it has been raining for that long. I live in Brisbane so I'm used to the rain anyway.

Sorry to hear that, we have seen plenty of sunshine and enjoyed many a day by the coast not that beaches interest us at all but love looking at old coast towns and villages.

Re: What Is 'Cheap' In Australia Compared To The UK?

Parking isnt free in most places in Brisbane, just the opposite. Parks in the UK are also free as is the sunshine and the beaches. I do agree about the free BBQ's, they are great.

Re: What Is 'Cheap' In Australia Compared To The UK?

I find the same when people say 'product x is expensive in the UK' when clearly it isn't. It's weird how we view things. I use the $2 to £1 which I have done for 20 odd years.

Re: What Is 'Cheap' In Australia Compared To The UK?

Re: What Is 'Cheap' In Australia Compared To The UK?

That's interesting, I know that home phone/broadband/TV packages are way cheaper there and mobiles always used to be as well.

Re: What Is 'Cheap' In Australia Compared To The UK?

Re: What Is 'Cheap' In Australia Compared To The UK?

It's sort of like fingers in the ears 'I cant hear you' kind of thing. I can fully understand those people in a new country wanting to see only the good stuff but you have to be realistic.

Re: What Is 'Cheap' In Australia Compared To The UK?

That's weird, I have phoned a couple of places and they have said they will take my full NCD as long as I have proof. They are all different though. 40% is a good start.

Re: What Is 'Cheap' In Australia Compared To The UK?

That can also be the case here I'm afraid, if you shop at markets and especially farmers markets then freshness is more likely.
