Don't abandon UK, Times urges Aussies

"But the economic downturn is adding another reason to leave Britain, on top of the usual gripes of Aussies here - including the notoriously miserable weather, especially at this time of year."

I'm working two bar jobs and earning enough to get by, the job hunt & good money making in London hasn't turned out to be as easy as I expected, but I'm staying positive; even attitudes like those below won't beat me down, maybe the winter will - I hear there are jobs aplenty in the south of Spain....


"Marvellous news, the sooner they all leave the better. They pay no tax, contribute nothing to society (except vomit and swearing) and take up swathes of town centres as no-go areas to english people. I won't miss them one bit."

No longer blonde!

I've given up the blonde to return to red, or burgundy, which should be easier maintenance for travelling - 4 days in Oz remaining, my stomach is constantly doing somersaults, I'll blame my current and constant state of disorganisation, but I actually think its some other bizzare sickness...
