actually no... I have spent a lot of time in Ireland/UK in the last 11 months almost as much time as in Aust.. and it is a lot cheaper for essentials there in Ireland particularly.. I always thought Meat would be horrendously expensive.. but for example mid loin lamb chops are $23kg at least here, and Euro$14kg (AUD$18Kg)..Milk is cheaper, bread is cheaper.. fuel is Euro$1.41 a litre on average in Jan 11 and that is slightly dearer but far less people own and drive cars in Dublin than in Perth for example.
