Remember Adam Hollioake??

[johnfm]

England cricketer, moved to Australia and became 'property developer'.

Apparently made more from than that than playing cricket..

Though I expect he's put some aside for a rainy day...

Hey John - hope all is well.

So another sad pom who didn't make it in the "lucky country"

Is he an Aussie now ? otherwise I guess his visa will be withdrawn.

Heh!

Odd one, the Hollioakes.

His brother died at 24 in a car crash in Perth IIRC. Not really been 'the lucky country' for them.

Decent cricketers - they would have some $$$ in the IPL.

Ben was a good player, had a lot more potential than Adam.

I do wonder at the type of people who take apparent glee in others misfortunes in such away. One only feels that they are covering over some deep seated inadequacies.
