You should really enjoy it while you're down there. The weather is amazing, they have amazing countryside that can be availed of nearly all the time because of the weather too.
The drink is cheaper than here. Supermarkets are cheaper than here. I was earning more there than I am here for an easier job (even with the exchange rate), and I've become a public hate figure here because the government employs me! The people are alright. I don't know where you're eating if you think the food is crap because the meat and veg there seemed of a better quality for me. The fish and seafood blows Ireland out of the water.
This isn't an attack on Ireland but Australia is a fantastic place.

Why do you feel the need to tell everyone your profession of your employer?
Dont go around telling everywhere where you work and things will be peachy again!!!

Havent been to Australia myself, but anyone I have ever spoken to who has say its completely over rated other than the weather!!

And sure we're Irish we'd burn and peel or turn into one large freckle.

God Save Ireland indeed.:D

Well all my friends and people who know me know what I do, and I made some points on this website in which I "came out" as a Public Servant. It's not like I wear a t-shirt...

Who are these people who people say over-rate Australia?
And I don't burn I go a nice bronzed colour thank you very much!

Mates of mine who have been to Australia and have since returned say its over rated, would you like names??

Eh you are one of the lucky few that tan.

Completely over-rated.
If you wanna go get pissed on a beach with a bunch of Irish people just go to ballybunion. It's cheaper and you don't have to fly for ten years to get there.

well just because that's what you did there doesn't mean we all did that. It's a shame you all didn't make the most of your time down there.

I did a lot down there. Not as much as others but a lot of touring. Just too expensive, not fun, and completely eclipsed by every other back packer destination I hit up. Different strokes but I hated it. From touring around to working there. Had a great job, penthouse apartment all that jazz. Just hated it from day one. Delighted to be back. And I have lived in a number of places. Just would never go back there.

Well, I can't see any reason why you would hate it, you obviously didn't have a good time there. I just loved the weather and the lifestyle and thought the people were friendly.

Until you live in another country for at least 4-6 months+ (bare minimum) you will realize Ireland is a great country to live in and not this ****e corrupt country everyone seems to label it who have never lived elsewhere.

I miss home!

I miss the mild, temperate weather. I miss the people, the food, I even miss TG4! I miss temple bar and the streets awash with vomit and urine(honestly, I do!). I miss Stephens green on a summer day, and being able to drive for a relatively short amount of time and being in the country. I miss the diverse accents and lifestyles!

I've been gone for 2 years now, I'd be home if it wasn't for the stupid recession.

Substitute "Ireland" for "America". Enter the above list instead of the list in the last verse of the song....You'd get the most reluctant "**** yeah..." after Leinster and Michael O' Leary

Considering a large amount of the country lives within Leinster and their current Heiniken cup champs you'd probably get a decent shout, also from the Connacht and Ulster lads who hate Munster and their supporters. Micheal O'Leary would probably be followed with a quick "**** off" rather than **** yeah.

OT, Ireland's a great place but just has some miserable people who don't want to find joy in anything.

-Funk

totally agree funk. started a thread on R&R yesterday complaining of west brits that complain about every little thing constantly saying things like "well it's a bit irish"
of course it's irish, we're in ireland. if you don't like it, the fcuk off.
the thread didn't pass the mod though. he was probably a west brit.

I have lived in a different country for 4+ months and do not feel the same as you. I used to like Ireland, but from seeing what else is out there, I increasingly find myself despising Ireland. It's still okay, but you can do so much better.

population

A land governed by greedy thieving braindead elite fcukwits and marauding Rapey Priests with poxy weather to boot.

If I seen that on a brochure I would not be saying "honey pack up the car we gotta see this place!!!"

I love Ireland and will be very happy to live there once I’ve finished seeing the rest of the world. I’ve also lived in New Zealand, England, and Australia and have traveled to many other countries around the world but there’s no place like home.

The thing that I like the most about Ireland is the people. Nearly everyone is looking to enjoy themselves and have a laugh. Traveling I have noticed that the Irish people I meet are much more likely to be up for going and doing something then a lot of other nationalities and they where much happier to spontaneously change their plans if something more fun came along.

We complain about things but generally we get on with life and are one of the most easy going nations I have ever come across. This has both positive and negative effects as sometimes we put up with incompetence when we shouldn’t but most of the time it’s not really that bad and things work themselves out in the end. I like this attitude. It’s a lot less stressful to live with.

Our cities even Dublin are not too big so you feel like you’re really know where you live and feel like you know the people too. Unlike London or New York where even if you live there your whole life you could still get lost easily.

I love how green our country actually is. I know that sounds corny but if you have been to any countries where water is not as readily available you will know what I mean.

If I ever have children I really would prefer to bring them up in Ireland.

Ireland really has a lot going for it as a country and I think those of us lucky enough to call it home should appreciate that once in a while. Sure it is going through a rough economic patch at the moment but it will come through it.

What a cool thread... you have the hate the place and the love the place... I'm right behind the hate the place...

****e Infrastructure (roads, rail, public transport, you name it)
Too expensive (head to the North folks it's great there)
****e Government
****e Government (worth 2 mentions)
This "it'll be grand" attitude when it f*cking won't be..
The "Ireland is great" view when it certainly is not..
The monumental chip on far too many people shoulders about the "horrible" Brits.

I can't say the people as I've met many good but equally as many bar... so can't paint them all with the same brush!

And before you say leave the place then, I would, but trapped in a house I can't sell in a ****hole in the south east...

Let's see how you all feel next week when the robbing c**nts in power take yet more money from you and do very little with the PS.....

You Suck!
