Hey,

I'm French, my boyfriend's australian, and since my visa is running out in Australia, we'd be thinking of going to UK for a while (since getting married for inmmigration seems a bit unsure). We're thinking of going there somewhere between May and August. Maybe.

Important Questions :
1- How is the job market in UK ? Is there any chance to find a job quickly as it used to be before the Gobal Financial Crisis or has it become impossible ?
2- Where should we go ? Is London Ok or has it been flooded out by job seekers ? Where else could be a good place to go ? (not being uge city fans, we'd rather stay in small to mid-sized towns/cities)

Additional Questions :
3- How much money would it be wise to leave with ? (with average to low spending habits)
4- Should we instead try to get married and stay in Oz ? (but i'm not sure if i would be granted a visa - we're a bit short in "proofs of genuine and commited relationship")

Thank you for any answer, i just want to make the right choice.
(given the state of our bank accounts, it's either uk or mariage, with no second chance if one of them fails) (so its a bit stress-ful right now) (and any bit of help/information would be awesome)
