Should be something like

'here look at all our grass, now leave your money & go'

or

'we hate the Brits so much, we copy everything they do'

although, in the last 2 years, I think it's become

'160,000 Polish migrants can't be wrong' (not slagging Poles BTW - each one I've met has been really nice, & the ladies all seem to be 'fine things')

I think I've heard that the job market is so booming in Ireland that they've been trying to attract immigrants, hence all the Poles. Any need for a 30 somthing mechanical engineer with middling skills?

...well Kristi, I was born, and I grow up in a small village in the austrian alps, with many mountains around up 3000 meters high...

...as you can imagine that I loved the westside of the south Island (Franz Josef and Fox area)...

...now I live in the capital city of my home country, Vienna, it has a 'green belt' around the city so we have relaxing zones not far of the city center... Belvedere Castle almost in the middle of town !
