    @steve.r---oh i'm all for those adventurous enough to seek pastures new and make a go of a new life on foreign shores---but i get a bit bit hacked of with those that just knock Britain --usually due to some personal " injustice " like a rubbish job--or the lack of even that.

    ive had to do some jobs i hated--and moved around in search of even those--to make ends meet. but i still think i am better of here--with the devil i know.

    Bigmac, even though i agree with some of the things you have said i am confused

    You have a girlfriend/wife that can not come to the UK but you choose your country rather than being with them?

    Like I said, I see both sides. But what hacks me off more are the people who constantly moan about the country but just sit on their fat rears and cant be bothered to make a change for the good.
    If you want your dreams to come true ...... first you have to wake up

    How do you work than one out?


    oh--simply based on my 65 years of living in this country---including the first 23 years in birmingham--same place as you looking at your location.

    Come back to Birmingham and you won't be saying the same.

    Maybe life here is rosy now for you but for millions of others I doubt if they would share the same sentiments what with high living costs ,debt problems and lack of jobs.
