Enough though I'm 100% WA I'm glad I only experience the 'wild west' from afar. WA ceased being my home some 17 years ago and every time I go back it's more like a foreign country.

On the plus side, my wife and I are still Australian citizens which means we can get into NZ free of charge! :o

That reminds me, I spoke to a German the other day, she has lived here for some 17 years. I asked her if she misses Germany and she answered "not really, every time I go back it is all more and more alien to me, besides I shop at Lidls" tongueout

I can relate to that, the DK I grew up in is not the DK we see now when we visit. Still a lovely country, just not one I long to move back to.

Please no we will drowned in the bloody things.

If you value your feelings then there is no point in bringing them to a place like this.

I guess no country is, just that one gets used to the country one lives in.
