fixxlevy,

Hey Big Boy, I think that the only way you can gain permanent residence to the land of really tight denim shorts (as standard) is to get married to one of those Paul Hogan loving types.

Which is a bummer if culture is your thing.
I have on very good authority that there are a few vocations for which Australia is searching, nay desperate, that their usual emigration restrictions do not apply.

The two I know of for certain are legal workers - lawyers/solicitors in the main - and IT/Computer professionals, the latter of whose ranks I am happy to number myself.

Add to that a number of definite offers of employment, and one has a very good chance of acceptance.

I would also have thought it easier for Britons to gain entry as opposed to Americans, but what the hell do I know? Either way, being Anglo-American, I've got it covered. :smile:

Floyd on!
Byron

Enough fannying about then, son.

Get yourself down there and we'll see about that night out!

Corks on my hat,

Mark

Sorry Dad,

I was hoping that 2000 would be as lucrative financially for me as 1999. Sadly, this was not to be so. Had it been, I would already find myself on Manly Beach risking all manner of skin cancer.

What the hell's wrong with your bleedin' sign-in anyway?

Diger Re Doo,
Byron

To be honest, I'm having a little trouble with my PC. I can't decide whether it's the server(Gateway internet) or closer to home. I log on, my homepage comes up, occasionally my MSN messenger can't sign in or outlook express can't find the server or, as seems to be happening quite frequently, the connection becomes inert, sitting, neither sending nor receiving any information. Then it cuts itself off. It does this a lot. Anyway, if it does this whilst I'm writing a reply, as soon as I submit it, the dial up box appears and if it dials through successfully, because I've been offline, I'm no longer signed in.

Hence the "Anonymous" tag.

It's a 100% PITA (and that's nothing to do with bread).

If you can offer any advice, email me.

Cheers Matey,

Mark

I can't help other than to commisserate with you for owning a Gateway - I think that's what you said, but I am probably very wrong - but I have a very well informed colleague whom I shall consult on your behalf.

Aren't I good? Not promising anything of course.

Incidentally- you sure about the subject of this topic?

I didn't realise we'd stumbled into "Disney's The Pink Floyd Site"

Splitting hairs,

Mark

It was I who started the bleeding thread so I can discuss what I bally well like...I think. :smile:

That'd be a neat ride: mount one's saucer (named: "secrets", no doubt) travel through a dawn blazing portal with pan pipes blaring and over a meadow, into a pict laden cave where we hear seriously groovy tunes and out the other end over a cow filled field and back into a giant ear...I think you get the picture. :smile:

Chocolate bars,

CIA,

Is that "GO" for the free-form forum topic or "GO" for the all-new - and soon to be copyrighted - Pink Floyd Disney ride?

Enquiring minds would like to know. :grin:

Ciao,
Byron

Get him, Charade!

Pound him, hammer him, flay him into shape! :smile:
















BTW, I was just kidding, but you all knew that already. Right?
