singapore is so boring and clean its like no one lives there?

but my main concern is making sure my wife and kids have good schooling and decent healthcare?

everyone from the uk complains about the uk but i like it here!

Hear, Hear!! Have to agree with most of the sentiments expressed here. Weatherwise, the UK can be sh**te for much of the time. But at least we have a "temperate" climate - with no extremes like destructive typhoons &c [although we've had akin to gale-force winds these past two weeks in Scotland] - whereas it's way too hot for my liking in the Pinas.

Proper healthcare is paramount, and in this context, Britain is streaks ahead of anywhere else on the planet, in so far as it is, for the most part, free.

Singapore, I cannot comment on, since I've never ventured out of the carpeted airport.

And so, all things considered, I'm thankful to be British!
