Fed up with Britain?

[Cracker]

I tried it 10 years ago. Went out there with a job lined up on the skills list sponsorship scheme. Not my cup of tea but I would encourage anyone to go and have a look, you'll not regret it.

I believe there's always work in Canada and the States due to the number of companies there but I also undertsand that getting work visas etc can be quite difficult. I wanted to work in Canada when I was younger but never got there. I might have contacts over that way should anybody be interetsed in work.

I am planning a visit to NZ and the "South Island". Last time we went to Australia landing in Brisbane and on the second afternoon were attacked/chased by a large Eastern Brown snake when looking around an old rural home. (The man had told us no snakes around as wintertime)

 

Regarding purchase in NZ/OZ the value of the UK£ is so low at present that changing monies/property purchase is difficult I heard unless in remote rural areas. (There is a new TV series called Wanted down Under).

Th kiwi is currently trading quite high against the pound. About five years ago for 1 pound you would get $4 but now it's only $2. Your money won't go as far but you can still do it on the cheap. I still find that my money goes further here than it did in the UK. Petrol is worth about 1 pound a litre if that helps.
