Why can't we say £500,000 and he is yours? Or else hands off until 2013.

Who'd want to live their life surrounded by Australians?

Not someone who has stated he regards all Oz females as ugly bovines, I guess?

Having stood on Bondi beach myself (and a good few other places in Oz), I have to say that was very far from my impression!

Had it not been for the mothers, we would have been off to Oz like a shot 25 years ago.

I'm not allowed to go to Aus on the premise that I would enjoy it too much and not want to leave.

They are desperate for skilled immigrants in many fields of work and for many people the allure of the job & lifestyle will be compelling

He'll get a shock then if he goes. The cost of living there is getting pretty horrendous now... So all the Aussies living here tell me.. They say the UK. is pretty cheap compared to what they have to pay for things now over there.

Its cheap - or looks cheap - because their dollar buys 60% more over here than it did 3-4 years ago!

It is over-rated for sure. Better beaches and nicer places further up the coast. But I have been stood on Bondi Beach on a cool, very windy, drizzly, overcast July day (i.e middle of winter) - and yet I've been stood on Scarborough beach in July and its been far colder, wetter, windier than it ever was on Bondi on that July day.

Mind you...if you sit on a bog in Scarborough, whatever else happens to you you are unlikely to get some antagonistic and pretty lethal arachnid biting you on your bum...
