On the way home....

[uky kozak]

I picked my wife up from work and she must have had a bad day co's she turned round and said: (baring in mind she emigrated from Poland 16yrs ago) "This country sucks and everyone just want's money for something or other especially the government, there is no quality of life here, lets pack up and move to OZ or NZ by the beach" Did I start to moan at her comment? - no chance. I have just started the process. Probably be the best thing I'm gonna do in my life apart from marrying my wife.

I worked in Oz once. Because of the big time difference, the only people who would answer your posts on CUK were the deranged, drunken morons.

Other than that it was OK I suppose.

How is that different to what it is going on normal UK work hours?

I was waiting for someone to say that. There's definitely a different calibre of moron during the day here. Our antipodean cousins have to put up with the night time loonies.

Yeah, sorry about that. I went through a phase of late nights a year or so back.

And Poland is SO much better. She must be gutted. Bye then.

Oh, and by the way "bearing"

I'm sorry that she suffers from that terrible syndrome where she has to turn around before saying something. It really must be a curse! I suppose she could be afflicted by the jumping up and down before saying something, that is much worse. Then there is the stepping sideways before saying something....

Funny enough I think I have made this comment one of the first times I was in England before I started living there.

However I mainly had London in mind. The rest of England did not look the same at all. But yes London initially had this dry feeling that everything is just for money and nothing else....
