Wanted Down Under

[breward]

Anyone else put it on series record?

DH said, "You can tell it's January when deluded escapism is back on!"

I love it, but have no intention of ever moving to Oz.

She might be an omelette knobber TBF. She came across terribly.

Ha ha its raining!

And NO space for kiddy to play outside, crammed next to the neighbours

This woman today is coming across like such a spoilt brat.

Just caught bits of it today, he seems resigned to his fate at the end didn't he.

Just looked at website and they are planning to move Dec 16. And she's expecting a babyaren't they always!

So it her career prospects that make it work financially but she won't be the one earning

I'm watching now on catch-up. The husband thinks its "a foolish endeavour". Wonder if he's a mnetter? I can't get my dh to change toothpaste brands never mind move countries
Its quite a big difference of opinion to have.

Don't know where that random wave came from.

Ill give you a lois so its not to awkward i had to turn it off today she was really annoying her poor husband just seemed railroaded into it

Today's episode was ridiculous.

"I haven't seen him so relaxed for a long time"

he's on bloody holiday! What does she expect?!? She was just weird, she hadn't even been to Aus before.

Thanks mrsjayy Yes another railroaded partner. How do they do it? I'm going to try a bit of railroading tonight with dh and the dc. See what I can get. hee haw

Love WDU but haven't managed to watch it yet this week so will binge watch at the weekend I think!

We know of a family who've emigrated to NZ, they went twice and returned home both times after a year and last I heard they'd gone for the third time! All in the space of six or seven years.

This is not something I watch very often, as I get a bit cheesed off with the repetition of 'it's a long flight/houses are expensive/cost of living is greater/blah that seems to occur in most episodes I've seen'. Have they not watched an episode themselves

Jam is cheaper, but chips are more expensive. That's helpful.
What about booze?? Tell us that! Fgs

Did I hear right that they were overspending by £270 odd a month here? That's a lot.

I always get annoyed at the 'oh it's so relaxing' bits. And the looking round the houses as if that's the exact house they are going to end up in.

My neighbour goes to oz once a year she says she was £27 for a bottle of vodka bugger that

Todays was another classic with another railroaded partner.

Is there an evening class where these people learn how to railroad.

Omelette knobber

Are we all playing Wanted Bingo?

Hot weather - tick
Outside lifestyle - tick
Good for the children - tick
It's my dream - tick
More family time - tick

Have I forgotten any?

Cheaper jam?

Sad faced grannys ?

Children being indoctrinated into keen parent's PoV with house details etc
Comparatively expensive shopping list but minimised by promises of changing eating habits.
Inflated view of value of UK property.

"we can work less hours" until we see a house with pool then decide we need a second job

"we will do more sport" Sure...

"we will make new friends" with Brits usually

Cattle prod to get doubting partner and kids on plane? TICK
