Perhaps they could load up the Trabant and choof off to the wonderland that is the Czech Republic. Her pharisaic attitude indicates her life is in balance with a chip on each shoulder.

Probably better to leave off with the interpersonal comments and stick to the topic? makes a better forum for discussion, I think.

So describing Australian as knuckle-dragging Neanderthals is just being brash and honest? Good thing we are not easily offended, don't you think?

you assume that wasn't included in my statement?

Do you know how to quote properly (not selectively)? Half a sentence! Seen it all now.. just to try and make a false accusation.
If people from other countries want to move to Australai no one makes them speak English. If they want to work here or they are children of school age they NEED to learn English.
That statement is not suggesting anyone should leave, nor do they need to learn English if they don't need to work or are not of school age.

I don't know who you are talking about, but that is not the OP.
As the OP hasn't stated which country she came from ( neither did I) it is unfair to make guesses, and especially if they are not even accurate ones.
As for posting their first name, correct or not... contravenes board usage rules.

Thanks for that refreshing bucket of cold water li.vish. Is there any chance of reminding the grammar police and spelling police that even though they have impeccable credentials they might show some understanding of what we mere mortals recognise as typing errors. Charientism, gently and elegantly delivered by you might work wonders.

Just as an educational post, the days of smart phones have made us lazy and preemptive text can make us look like idiots, although typos are quite different to grammar and spelling.
