Just as long as the Ozzie government don't think they now have too many going back that they don't need anymore migrants

HI Pete, Interesting read ? , surprised that they waited this long to go back home? My aussie mate is coming over here in august he loves it here don't know if he would want to swop thou? . But he did say something ! that was , we had a graet base here in the uk for the rest of Europe something i never thought about before , just taking it for granted? . Funny he did not mention the weather all us poms like to have a moan about that ?? ATB Paul

:)In the Advertiser over here today it says the same but from the Aussie point of view, also mentions the huge skills shortage. Cheers Graham

Don't worry, South Australia is still very under populated, so I doubt the Gov will be closing the flood gates just yet.

A lot of aussies come home to nest anyway....they remember their childhoods etc and get nostalgic, cos it's not quite the same when you have to lug a kids bike and the pusher down 6 flights of stairs, go to the park and then back up after.

All this is so negative about Britain, lets just remember all the things we are going to miss apart from family and friends

 

: panic buying at the petrol pumps

 

: british wonderful whether (where else can you go where you will get all four seasons in a day)

 

: Driving at 70 + on a motorway five foot behind the car in front and having the same done to us

 

: Having extra days unpaid holidays here and there because of teacher strikes and you can't get baby sitters in the look after the kids in the 5 days notice they give you.

 

: Wondering who is going to hold the country to ramson next farmers, lorry drivers etc etc

 

Can anyone think of others I know this list is endless...........................................

Hi,

I thought it interesting that people are leaving the UK to go back to Nigeria, as that was next on my list if I failed to get an Aus visa.
