I seem to have wandered into a parallel universe.

You could use a binary decision making tool. I've found they have worked very well for me. Otherwise, I guess you could make a list of pros and cons. Third option I guess is don't go full commitment, just set up light, and if you like it in Australia, then increase your presence. Maybe start out renting, and then buy after a year if you think things are going well. If you have kids in both countries, I daresay you will spend some time moving back and forth, and if you are retired, you won't need to rush back. You can take your time and sort things out.

She is thirty I guess, but that's still a bit off.

I think people are getting very confused here. You are an Australian citizen, or you are not. There is no second class 'australian citizen by descent'. You can claim Australian citizenship by descent. And when you do this will affect when you're children can claim. But once you claim Australian citizenship, then you are an Australian citizen. As long as you were an Australian citizen at the time of your children's birth, and you have spent two years in Australia, your children will be able to claim Australian citizenship by descent, and they will then be Australian citizens.

Well, if you compare numbers between the UK and USA. Spot the difference.

I think while there are very high numbers in other parts of the world, we still need to be cautious of people outside the UK, because they could bring in vaccine busting variants. But I think people inside the UK should be able to relax a bit.

You are probably already seeing that. All school kids test twice a week, so you would probably expect numbers to be higher. They may not all test on the same day, but my son's school recommended test days, so they might. Sunday and Wednesday, so probably reported Monday and Thursday.

We may see higher cases, but hopefully hospital numbers and deaths will continue to fall. The UK is a vaccine testing ground. None of us really know how this will work.

That is a very good question, and the answer could be both, and also neither. Initially, if SNP wins, I would say the movement would be down, mainly because of the uncertainty. Can't say by how much, and whether it would be a temporary reaction. But an SNP majority doesn't mean they will go straight for a referendum, or that they would win it. Long term, if Scotland left, the movement could be up, especially if NI looks at following suit. England could be a lean mean Atlantic Singapore. Or not. But this would take some years to eventuate. I would suggest that people just be aware for now, knowing that there may be volatility, and make plans accordingly.

The upcoming Scottish election could have a significant effect on the pound. If the SNP wins by a decent margin, that makes an independence referendum more likely and the pound will react as a result.

I really hope not. The numbers are looking really good.

He was good in liar liar. His career suffered alot with me too. He also seems to be going through a messy divorce. But I quite enjoyed Harrow.

I've just watched the first two series of Harrow. Most of it seems to be filmed in Brisbane, with some up the north coast. It's been twenty years since I visited. It's grown alot. It's a pretty place.

You don't judge me very well because I judge people on their actions? How should I judge people if not on their actions? Maybe it will help you if I tell you that my response was to parley, and it concerned other people, and had nothing whatsoever to do with you. If I had wanted to insult you personally, I would have responded to you, and there would have been no doubt whatsoever that you had been insulted. I'm Australian.

I judge people by their actions.

If you don't want to be a yes man, then I can understand how that may cause conflict. But personally, I see integrity as part of a positive skill set.

I have to say, as come backs go, that one wins the prize!

Oh come on parley? How often do you ever see someone admit they are wrong? Isn't that what the laughing face emogi is for?

I guess if Mr Murdoch doesn't like you then you've got to go. Maybe they should have specified "yes man" on the job description?

As always, the Australian dollars performance will be more likely dictated by China's economic opening rather than Australia's. There have been talks of China peaking, but until it happens it hasn't happened. We are also unsure of the democrats plans for china. The thinking was that they would role back trump's tariffs, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I have no skin in the game, but I would assume that the pound has the advantage at least for the short term.

I thought legally they had to refund. I'm sure if you threatened to take legal action you would get a cheque.

Maybe he wants to do some good?

Not really. I had my jab in an open plan room in sight of about fifty people. I don't mind the odd bit of private skinny dipping, but I'm not really into public exposure.

I don't follow the Queensland market, but I can see it's gone up sharply. I'd buy in Perth as it's been stagnant for the last ten years, and is starting to move up. But that doesn't help you much.

I'm sure the multi millionaire Mr Turnbull will be extremely upset and grateful for your interest.
