Do you enjoy living in the UK?

Post by ruskie » Tue Jun 03, 2008 7:41 pm

I love certain aspects of living here but getting sick to death of being hammered by taxes. Petrol, Food shopping, Utility Bills all massively increased in last two years. Weather is shite and can't go on a night out without some ignorant twat trying to spoil it. Would love to try living abroad for a year to see how it works out.

Opinions?

maybe so, but theres only so much partying u can do before reality lets u know its there. the weather is just really wank to be honest, if i lived in barcelona or something id be alot more happier i reckon, but its not just the weather, the people are so fucking miserable and all seem to have a chip on their shoulder too!

i moved to lisbon, and bar the fact there aren´t as many good quality parties on a regular, the cost and quality of life is far higher than the UK. and the fish is top bollocks

In all honesty if your paying mortgage, bills etc leaves very little money left over even of your on 20K+ a year to go out more than once or twice a month. £3.70 a pint of lager on a Sat night.

In my line of work I see the worst that this country has to offer and it is not pretty.

Anyone who thinks that the eton dwellers will be better off for this country must be deluded. What does David cameron know about making ends meet or the common touch?

thats cos people need to concentrate on what food costs what, with this RIP OFF buzznezz.

Mang englands wank, you only raelly need to go to america (im gonna get some shit for this) to realise how much they HAVE GOT THEIR HEADS SCREWED ON!!! Money over their is like dropping off trees, the only thing you seriously gotta worry about is your health cos of health insurance and what not. Maybe thats cos when ever i go round there i always double my money on clothes due to a nasty exchange rate.
