Hi,
Not to far off...
Originally from South Africa (fore fathers where Dutch), but been living
in the UK for the last 5 years, so moved from UK to Australia.
Like it much better here, the uk is just to wet and cold...

I am s software developer. Used to do Delphi (pascal) coding in South
Africa, but moved onto web based technologies (mostly php now). Mainly
because there were not many open delphi jobs in the UK, and php jobs
payed about double.
Still work for the UK based company, the internet has made the world a
very small place....
