Eh?'"
It's very simple.
Sadly your average Brit has been let down badly by the English educational system. As a result of this there are lots of very well paid jobs around where none of the British candidates have the right qualifications/and or experience, not only in London, but also in major cities like Birmingham and Manchester.
A lot of these jobs require candidates that have been educated to degree level. A lot of Poms leave school barely being able to read and write. I'm not having a go at people for this, your education system has failed so many of you and it's not your fault.
So thats where the likes of me come in.
I have a good education. I've been to university. I got a good degree. I have a lot of life experience. I have worked hard. I have travelled extensively.
I came to London for a good time, but primarily I came to London to earn a lot of money. I scored a very well paid job in central London. My employer is superb. He has told me himself that he likes employing Australians because not only are we a lot better qualified than our counterparts from GB but we get the job done without whinging or calling the union in.
A lot of Aussies here (me included) live in share houses. We split the rent, we share the bills, we party hard. When we go back to Oz on a holiday we rent our rooms out to other Aussies for a month or so.
Then after a few years.... we go home. Minted.
British women love us. They honestly can't get enough of us. Trust me on this. Our motto is 'Here for a good time....not a long time' Visit the Shepherds Bush Walkabout and you will see it in lights on the wall. It's our mantra.

I think you are mistaking me for your boyfriend JB
As I said, my grandparents live in Warrimoo. When I'm back home I often travel to visit them (by car)
I've probably travelled the M4 more times than you and JB have shared a hot shower together you dope!

| So let me get this straight.
You Aussies are so well educated, skilled, and have a brilliant work ethic. Yet to get a semi-decent paying job you have to leave the homeland and resort to working in England?
You couldn't make this up.
Your country is a joke on the world stage. Economically, politically, and culturally devoid of anything to offer global society.
Hell the one thing you could at least cling to (sporting prowess) is slipping away.

Not 'have'
The thing about being an Aussie is we like to travel. We like to enjoy life. Your idea of a good time may be to spend 30 years working in the same factory in the same town in England as you were born and raised in. Along the way you will get married to a local girl, have a few kids who will then grow up and the cycle will repeat itself.
Thats fine if thats your thing.
It's certainly not mine.
I could probably earn a similar amount back home. A lot of us maybe coudn't. But I choose to come here and earn YOUR money and root YOUR women for a few years before returning home and spending all the money I've saved. Notice how I didn't say 'drink your beer' as well?? Thats because your beer stinks.
Aussies know this country sucks, but its an easy way to earn a few good bucks whilst travelling and using it as a good base to explore continental europe.
Thanks

Bloody hell the aussies are even dafter than i thought if they think working at walkabout is a well payed job! still what can you expect from a country that has contributed less to the world than albania. From the few british women i know that have been desperate enough to sleep with an aussie, the 'not a long time' bit is at least accurate.

| Wow... If anyone was ever wondering why there aren't more decent Aussies regularly posting on RLFANS this thread sums it up...
Those that do regularly post here are practically trolls and the reaction to them is just plain disturbing (cadoo - you have serious issues).
As a follower of both UK/European and Aussie RL I look forward to seeing the World Cup back in the game's homeland... and think it has every opportunity to be successful.
