    What should have been posted by aus_boy

    This is my first post.
    I am an irish ex-pat. I emmigrated to Australia only 5 weeks ago, after having previously living here for some time. I decided I wanted to come back to austrailia and live.
    I was wondering, do the Irish in general seem miserable in cold rainy old Ireland, and do they just want to leave?



    I came back to Australia 5 weeks ago, for good this time. I have spent some time in Austrailia before.

    I've an aussie living with me. I'd like to return him to Oz as he has some screws loose but am unsure if they'll take him back. don't think we have a proper trade/deportation agreement with those ex-cons. ;)

    Would like to exchange him for a Koala Bear and a eucalyptus tree. (It would be nice to have an Aussie of some sort that would just sit in the corner and shut up! :D )

    I wasn't exactly clear was I? I had a few beers when I started the thread! I'm in aus now, I emmigrated to here from Ireland 5 weeks ago. I was here before, but had to go back to ireland because my aussie visa expired. I loved it here so much I decided when I was in ireland, I would come back to aus and live. so here I am! I just wanted to discuss if anyone else wanted to do the same? Maybe I shouldn't post whilst drunk!?

    No, no, I mean snaks alright. It's my own patented brand of slagging.... you may use it if you want.

    WWM... I'm not hot under the collar...I just like ripping the píss out of Amp :)
    Seriously.... this guy aus-boy or whatever got a viscious amount of abuse and the píss ripped out of his grammar, there's plenty of confusing posts here everyday...and most inteligent people can decipher them without lowering to slagging the original poster... so I just wanted to vent my anger at the stupidity of giving a newbie a shít load of hassle. That's all.

    In fairness, the original post was about as clear as amps potty after a heavy curry. Even the poster admitted as much.

    calm down there mate.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,468 ✭✭✭Evil Phil


    I'm going to Perth, then Melbourne and overland to Sydney to meet up with some mates. Then I'm off to New Zealand. I've a visa application for residency winging it's way to Oz at the moment so hopefully I'll be going back after that for good. It sounds fantastic, great weather, great life style, great people I really hope I get that flippin' visa.

    and being an australian i could just as easily say something equally stupid like, dont you have potatos to eat or something?

    Criminally stupid?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,468 ✭✭✭Evil Phil


    Oh aus_boy, how long did you visa application take to get processed?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,522 ✭✭✭Dr. Loon

    I'm as calm as a thunderstorm mate.
    Still.... next time you make an unclear post, may I abuse you and call you a muppet? It's quite annoying to tell someone to calm down when my angry post was actually made yesterday!! I'm well calm at this stage.

    Just to pop on topic... I'd well like to split this pit of despair, but things hold me down... Good luck to all who get themselves out.. :)

    I did the defacto permanent visa application with my g/f. It took 8 months and lots of stress, and lots of money! 535 pounds, and another 100 pounds medical examinations etc. I still haven't got it yet! I'm going to new Zealand in a few weeks to get it finalised (more money on flights...blah, blah). the visa is through, but trust me it doesn't happen fast. But after all of that, I'm now an aussie resident (well almost anyway) and I'm going to NZ for a 10 day holiday, so I shouldn't moan about it, eh? :)

    If you want the one year working holiday maker visa, the processing just takes a few weeks.

    if you need any visa advice: mailto:aus_boy@hotmail.com

    I don't see anything wrong with making a newbie feel welcome. Bring him into the fold and all that, after all he is helping me. If everybody got condemned cos of their first posts on boards, then none of us would be here. Anyway, sense of humours, lacking etc...

    No offense... Im basically an imigrant - Won't say were Im from, I'll more than likely get mobbed by you lot... Ho Hum...

    Point is at least I have some knowledge of how to read / write / speak the English language... Like I said, no offense, but those posts are something like what you'd hear out of a crack induced, intoxicated straight jacket wearer with nothing on his/her mind but goblins, faeries, pixies and a rather nasty fondness / fetish for dressed up bricks...

    Or something like that... Anyway, carry on.
