Hi thanks for all your replies.
I can move to Thailand as my daughter has a passport for there ... but its too hot most the year, and i couldnt imagine spending the last 1/3 of my life there .. plus the opportunities would be limited for daughter.
Can move to the USA, but its too violent. Canada is too cold.
NZ is too far if i need to work in Europe, the extra few hours are a killer.
Northern Europe is less fun than England, and has similar problems, plus Brits don't move to Europe at working age even prior to Brexit due to not speaking the lingo.
Basically Australia as the language / climate / job prospects for kid/ safety to live an OK life.
Contacted several companies, since i initially posted, a few have got back to me .. but as soon as i said im 49, they go quiet ... not sure why as it was only a short time ago that i was 25!
I'm not too fussed about getting PR for myself, its more a case of getting my kid out there, and getting her settled whilst she is almost young ... as she is academic, id imagine in time she could get PR, after studying at Uni, then the 2 year working holiday visa ... at which point i can pay for the parental visa which i see is very expensive.
More a case of getting the 4 year work visa for myself, which just about sees her finish pre uni education.
