Re: Had enough of the UK
I think we take the UK for granted.... but I have to admit I have suggested to my kids that they emigrate...only because the place is so full and multiculturalism hasn't really worked in the area around me...I'm not being racist saying that but it's a fact people have not integrated on the whole.Re: Had enough of the UK
I think HK did it for me - I could have stayed in UK all my life of course, but once I'd got out and seen how 'the other half of the world lived' I was keen to see more. Having an old working mate living in OZ was useful too and I also had mates in CA but had lost touch with them. My father was an armchair traveller so maybe I had a gene passed on - but Uk just came a bit boring and then there was fighting in my kids schools with knives and that made up my mind!Re: Had enough of the UK
Re: Had enough of the UK
I too had a good life in UK and left as I have said before in the early '80's. But without wanting to create an argument I can never see it being the same as say the 60's or 70's - I experienced the austere years immediately post war and then those exciting changes of the 60's a pop music arriving so I suppose I never experienced the surge of multiculturalism as exists today?Re: Had enough of the UK

Re: Had enough of the UK
I'd love to go somewhere else to live eventually but where would you choose? Even quiet, placid places like New Zealand or Holland are dangerous.
