    G'day

    I've given up caring and gone down the management route instead, now I have teams working for me who answer the technical questions ;) How's the search engine business and have you popped your cherry yet?

    Genuinely feel grateful I'm here during this, it's pretty much life as usual . Aus has handled it very well in comparison to the UK, which looks a complete cluster from afar

    G'day

    Moved to Aus last year. 10 years of Sg was enough time to line the pockets at a preferential tax rate ;) Which makes me think Jeez, remember the CUK catch ups - that still a thing, pre lockdown?

    I pay my full 13% or so income tax here mate, plus I get paid double what I was getting contracting, with all the full time trimmings ;) But you missed my point completely, it wasn't about the UK. I was talking about India specifically; the jobs will go where the talent is, and most of the best...

    Still in Singers, living the dream :wave: Never regretted the decision to leave. After the initial shock of the country actually voting for it, well what can I say but the rest of the world is scratching their heads laughing and going WTF were you thinking. Must say it's extra nice to visit...
