flag of convenience Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 In raw numbers who knows? But in terms of percentage of returnees I'd say definitely WA. But remember some 12% of the population is UK born. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parley Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Every 2nd pom seems to say they are going to Perth, so it would be my pick too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aunt Agatha Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I was going to say Perth too. It seems to be heavily weighted that way in PIO anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flag of convenience Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Poms and voortreckers this is the place. With the wearing of the green becoming increasingly common. Packed for Perth a rather common saying in South Africa, even if Perth isn't necessary the end destination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Why leave Brisbane? coolest city in Oz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyay1 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 i think a lot leave from Perth too, although that also seems to attract a hell of a lot of Brits for various reasons. i actually find Melbourne a bit like a home away from home with the old buildings, narrow characterful laneways and crappy weather at times. perhaps all that sun goes to people's heads in perth. have to say i loved perth when i visited for a holiday but if you're into city life and buzz it did strike me as very quiet, the CBD was like a ghost town at 5pm/ having said that it was 5 ago maybe its more happening now.

Guest Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 And wettest Pretty sure Brisbane has arguably the best year round weather in oz! Certainly better than the Midlands back home or has Stratford had to build a beach in the town centre too to enjoy all the sunny days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dxboz Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 No way has Brisbane best year round weather - have you been to Perth? I lived on the east coast for most of my life and visited Brisbane regularly - no way is the weather better - might be better than Midlands though!

fifi69 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Nope Wrong wrong wrong...have you been actually been into the CBD, Northbridge or even Freo of an evening lately. I have....with friends, family and other members of PIO. Ok it's smaller scale than other major cities throughout the world....but get out there with open eyes and you will find the crowds and lots going on..

Yep, my office is in the CBD - St georges terrace. Sure there are some people wandering around, but that's not a lot. Maybe it's just a different opinion of our definition of "city life and buzz". Never been to Freo for nightlife though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
