Ye' old general discussion board. Basically, for everything that isn't covered elsewhere. Come here to shoot the breeze, shoot your mouth off, or whatever suits your fancy. This forum is not for asking programming related questions.
Australia! Tell me how it goes and what you think about it because I am thinking about moving there in a few years and I would like to know how it seams.
Shiz... I also looked into moving to work in Australia. It's all points based and you get more for having a degree, and varying things relating to the field you work in (depending upon what Australia feel they need more of). As it turns out jobs in most computing related fields are good things to go for since you get a lot of points for expertise in these areas (last I checked). Getting a temporary work permit is a lot easier than permanent though, in the end I decided I need to get a lot more work experience here before even trying to move out there. 2 more years and I'll be looking into it again. I know 2 girls from Australia who are working in Manchester, UK for a year and I've been invited to stay over a for a month when they head back which should be a lot of fun
Still £90 more than i wanna pay, considering i have just paid £620 for the flight, £57 for new passport, £15 for a visa + travel insurance, and the small matter of a £1000 minimum spending money.
How about £8 for a nice book? No need to switch it on, no battery-issues, no stupid stewardess telling you: "please switch off all electronic devices, Sir", no breakage, can happily spill coffee over it and it still works, no probs on the beach with all that sand, water-damage is minimal... wooohooo! Books rock! Plus, you can sit on it - and impress the girls by raving about it. Always a good start of conversation
Yep a book is essential flying material. I usually get to the airport and buy myself a brand new book just before I fly and also a newspaper or magazine for a little light reading with your inflight beverages
