Of course Australia has much more space but it's such a **** hole that no one wants to build there is that it.

The quantity of new builds out there, in and around the existing major
population centres is staggering.

I wasn't talking about the quality of the build but the place itself.
but why come to london and pay £100 a week for a room like this.

I wouldn't call it a **** hole but having lived there for a few years the UK,

Theere must be some reason why there'a demand for housing in London, and as Roger sheep says it's just a soggy little.

island what dopes australia have
away from the major population centres is IMHO a far nicer place to be, but
then again I'm biased as I don't like the heat, humidity, bright sunshine or
deadly snakes, spiders and sharks, but do like rolling countryside, hedges,
moorland, British cheeses, Marmite, haddock and chips, pork pies, runner beans,
English Tea, paddling at the waters edge, proper sausages, dry cured English
bacon, Welsh Lamb, Guinness on draught, McVities digestive biscuits, McVities
hobnobs, British milk, British chocolate, British bread, British tap water,
British computer keyboards, British TV, British radio, M&S underpants, roads
without tolls and British road signs.

now that last one is curious what's so special about British road signs ?
I know you can't get decent tea in a lot of foreign places and the beer in AUS is **** water other than a few decent micro-brewers that is.
