Some of the old school expats aint happy but its the British way to stay upbeat in the face of adversity, remember Rorke's Drift. The Spanish are the party people of the world, always happy..

Guest brooksey Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 It makes me laugh how everyone seems to put Australians in one group. Ie there all lazy, there all scuffy, there all rude, there all great. I go to an ozzie neigbours house for drinks parties and yet i think another Ozzie neighbour is an arse. Same thing went in Sheffield. Surely not everybody is the same whatever country your in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on...and living in any country in the world is the same.....hard......if you have to work you can never really enjoy the Country 100% untill you retire....then it is to late mate...that is why I will retire at 50.

Guest Anly Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 As I have said elsewhere Tis a big country and it is like the blind men feeling different bits of the elephant describing Oz differences to a person still in UK In very hot summer days you definitely cannot walk barefoot and nor can puppies I do not find honesty is valued here much altho I understand that this fairly new and may be the same in UK now I let rooms and prefer travellers from anywhere but here unless they are really special The Oz men do not flirt much the older ones that is and expect you to go to them They are easily put off and do not talk to you at all if they think you are not interested and it is hard for Europeans used to be a bit of enthusiasm I spose most of you are married so not a problem But you kind of feel there is not as much free floating love going around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anly Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Fashion is about up to date now thanks to the internet Prepackaged meals in supermarkets are not as good or as tasty in fact are mostly crap and read the labels as there are different additives that are banned in UK Food in cafes pubs and restaurants is cheaper and better in Oz with good seafood Eating out is more common Commercial TV is crap unless you get cable etc altho sbs and abc are good Movies are up to date Pubs are not the same not somewhere to relax Coffee shops are good State schools expect money for books and some courses In WA kids have poor vocabularies Melbourne they have good ones Not sure about the other places It is easier to pay for private schools esp if they are church run But they may not be better than the state ones Oz people think that speaking a second language is exotic and not many do tho Aborginals up north may speak several languages There are a lot of amphetamines around and the usual drugs That is all I can think of for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
