The UK seems so risk adverse nowadays that I can't help thinking that I'd be better off working abroad.<br/><br/>From what I've read on the Unlock website, travelling to SA for a holiday doesn't seem to be too much of a problem but I wonder whether it would be any different if I wanted to work in South Africa.<br/><br/>I met a guy when I was in HMP Wandsworth who told me that he'd worked in South Africa for many years after receiving a criminal record in the UK. &nbsp;He told me that he'd had no problems at all. This could potentially be an option for me as I think I'd be able to get work. Has anybody else had any experience.<br/><br/>Many thanks&nbsp;<br/><br/>Daz<br/><br/><br/>Wed, 25 Jan 2017 17:11:27 GMTDazzie
