JoandJon Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 I think there are millions of reasons to move to Australia I don't think the UK is horrible - it's also lovely and fab, but I want to live in Australia! I don't think that other countries are horrible (ok there are some that I think have hideously horrible and yucky things). I want to (and soon will be) live in Australia!!!!

Guest51810 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 The weathers fab, the people are overall very friendly, the amazing wildlife, the scenery, the hot surfer dudes ( joking!) the chance to live somewhere new for a few years if not forever, opportunity to try new things that i maybe couldnt in the UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoandJon Posted September 29, 2011 Author Share Posted September 29, 2011 I've yet to see any spiders with tattoos, and the bouncing mice are rarely seen in the CBD now they've introduced trams and we don't have to ride them to school any more.

Guest Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 whats a tim tam?? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Tam Its like a Penguin, only a bit thicker and not quite as crunchy a biscuit. Some larger Sainsbury's sell them (at least down our way they do, along with Milo! ) I prefer Arnott's Mint Slices though http://www.theenthusiast.com.au/archives/2011/the-biscuiteer-arnotts-mint-slice/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
