You are the very definition of a "Whinging Pom". ;-)


Whinging is complaining about stuff you just don't happen to like. Thats
different to complaining about a ****ty service you pay through the nose
for. I doubt many aussies would put up with the same kind of **** train
service we get in this country.


If London is so unattractive to Australians ...


... why are so many of them over here?


To make space for all the Kiwis and boat people who keep flooding into Oz,
of course G.

You'll notice that almost all in GB are Euro-Australians, and for many, GB =
the nation of family origins. So, it's natural to seek out one's roots if
one lives in an environment with so many references to "the Old Country".

For example, I was born in Luton. My late father-in-law came from South
Shields. My late father was a Brummie. My mother from Islington. My wife has
a maternal ancestor from the East End. And so on it goes.

So, Earl's Court was (is) the first stage of an Ozzie's "pilgrimage" to
'honour' their ancestors.

Wasn't there a fox photographed at Walthamstow Central recently? Even
so I can't see how what one would be doing in the vicinity of Warren
Street tube station.
