General (General discussion, talk about anything.)
We used to have a few posters on Wigan World who were posting from Australia, they were people like those £10 poms you hear about, who emigrated to Australia in the 1960s and from back then when I first watched Skippy LINK I always hated the thought of living in somewhere like that
Most of the Australian posters on here were alright, except for one or two, or maybe even three, four or five of them, who were not alright, and they would follow the UK news, and if something bad had happened in the UK, they would come on here and 'gloat' about it
They would say how much better things were in Kangaroo Land.
I would reply with something like "well at least when we have a flood in the UK we only have to worry about a few rats in the water, unlike Australia where you find crocodiles and poisonous snakes nibbling at your toes if you wade through flood water"
Well just look what has happened to the Australian dream LINK
And it's too hot LINK
So give me the UK anytime
