    All I can say is that my dad's cousin and her family emigrated in the 1950s and came back a few years later having had a miserable time. I think the problem was that her husband was a lazy so and so who didn't want to work hard, which didn't go down too well in Oz. But then it hadn't gone down too well in Britain either, which is why they went. I don't know what they were expecting.

    On the other hand, some family friends moved to Australia in the late 60s for a few years. They were not true immigrants I think because his company sent him to set up a new manufacturing plant and stay on for a while as head of maintenance. They always planned to come back. They had a really good time and made a fair bit of money.
