First of all hello everybody and happy new year.

I have been thinking about a move abroad for some time now.Australia would be my first choice then Canada. Anything beats the weather her in Scotland!!!

I have a problem regarding my job...

Im a Test Technician for an electronics company. I really want to change jobs and learn a trade such as plumbing.

What would i be best to do? go through the immagration process then try and change job? If i were to take up plumbing here i know you must have done it for 3 years before its classed as your job with the immagration people.

Back to my current job..

I have a NC/HNC/HND in electronics and over 10 years experience. I would not fancy doing this job indoors aircon or no aircon.

Im 31 years and dont have anything going against like criminal record, etc.

Im also single and would be taking the plunge alone.

Advantages and disadvantages of the above mentioned. I have a friend who (still in UK) is supposed to go out and join his family Adelaide.

I fancy Melbourne or Perth.

So the problem is with me wanting a job change.

Any advice would be great. Thanking you in advance

Paul.
