Best of luck to them I say. We need a bit less of the cynical whining and moaning.

It is one of the aspects that is the most irritating about them. They are so bloody positive about everything.

It wears you down.

Enjoy the snakes, spiders, sharks, jellyfish and skin cancer.

Not just those - don't forget to watch out for crocodiles.

The UK is typically 10 years behind everywhere else.

I'm over the age limit but Mrs Gadgetman's career is on the wanted skills list so I am tagged onto her visa.

What a pile of bollux. Australia is just about 2 years behind what happens in the rest of the world - and their economy will be as fliped as everyone elses.

HTH

Too much VB? Any hole's a goal and all that

You know what, you may not be to far from the truth (occasionally) with that one ...

A mate of mine f**ked off to Argentina a few years ago after making some money on SAP contracts. Bought 2 flats; one in a nice part of Buenos Aires and another in Ushuaia, both for about 30000 euros (cash; no mortgage) and now works as an adventure guide for tourists in the summer and a personal trainer for rich city people in BA in winter; all the meat packing glitterati will pay top dollar to look good on the beach. I’m planning to go over and see him next year as he’ll be marrying a local girl. He says they just haven’t really got an economic crisis now; they had theirs in 2000 and this credit-crunchie-bar nonsense just doesn’t scare them.

True, but when I lived there I was pretty active .. kind of odd one that, it's the most outdoory/active place I've ever lived. But equally there appear to be loads of fatties there (I didn't notice, but maybe they were all out in west Sydney or in the country)...

Cool beers, hot sun, beautiful beaches, stunning shielas, active lifestyle etc etc.

I'll risk a few spiders for that ...
