    Australia,Lots of Irish.. No English

    I'm working in Australia at the moment and seems to be a hell of a lot of Irish guys working here but only a handful of English guys. Not really sure why this is, the work is good. Good money, thought I'd see more guys here trying their luck, any thoughts ?
