I nearly moved to Barrow in 1988 as my former husband worked for VSEL. Back then there were some good honest hard working people there due to the 15,000 VSEL employed. Such a shame as I quite liked the town.

When we stayed in London on our last trip we stayed in a Premier Inn close to the London Eye. Couldn't fault it.

We have 1 iMac, 2 Macbooks, 1iPad and 3 iPhones. If it's not Apple it doesn't get in the house

20 degrees here in Perth yesterday and I had a fleece and uggs on Enjoy the warm weather UK folk and hopefully everyone stays safe.

and some stink!

you can buy pickled pork in Woolies and Coles.

I actually feel a bit sick!

Why each way, last time I went out in the City we took the train there and got an $80 cab home. Only $20 each between the 4 of us.

you are fighting a losing battle QSS!

Absolute nonsense. You really do talk some poop sometimes.

I believe it was moved due to being so close to Foundation Day (now WA Day)

We get the Queens birthday in September instead.

Sorry to hear of all the sadness here today, my thoughts are with all of you. My daughter's best friend took her own life 3 years ago and my own daughter attempted it almost 2 years ago. It is a horrible thing with so many people affected. Big hugs all around.

Cetaphyl is fantastic and has a range of products. Charlize Theron and Amanda Holden recently admitted to being users of this product. My daughters have sensitive skin and use this to wash their faces and bodies in the shower.

It's not happening in Herefordshire or Stratford ergo it's not happening......

My daughter was born in Canada, has a British because of me and is now an Australian citizen. All is fine.

It's a tricky time for primary teachers in WA at the moment. This is the first year that year 7 has been high school and not primary so there are plenty of local, experienced primary teachers currently struggling for work.

Agree with this and the insurance will not pay out if they see an adaptor, it happened to my neighbour. My ex just changed all the plugs on things, it was time consuming but I am glad we did it that way.

I would agree with King George Whiting, a fantastic fish. The OP doesn't say where she is but KGW is available here in Perth. I also quite like flathead. Red Emperor, Dhufish are both lovely but on a budget not a good option! Sadly decent fish is expensive and I personally wouldn't buy fresh or frozen from the supermarket and I would go to a fishmonger.

Just keep an open mind. I am a country girl and I couldn't live there as much as I love it for a holiday. Please do add me, her rental is lovely. Newly renovated and beautifully done within walking distance to beach.

Very small town with small town mentality. Driven by tourism and fishing. Have to come to Perth for any proper shopping. I love Jurien but it isn't the normal destination for migrants. My bestie owns a holiday rental up there that she has just renovated if you need somewhere to stay.

A sofa in the UK is the same as a sofa in Australia. The climate has nothing to do with it. We moved in with my Dad in the UK for 1 month. Took a holiday rental for 3 weeks, found a rental and then had our container delivered. Easy. Believe me, Australia is expensive. I love it here and have no desire to leave but it is VERY expensive compared to the UK. Best bring the lot IMO.
