Hi All,

Quick intro from the Walker family. We're currently selling our house in Basingstoke and moving to Christchurch.
I'm a kiwi returning home (after nearly 10 years), and my wife and children are all Basingstoke born and bred.
No doubt the questions and comments from us will start flowing over the next few months as we start nearing our leaving date (probably early April). I look forward to hearing from any of you already in Christchurch and meeting you for a beer once we land and find our feet.

Cheers!
Mike, Hayley, Nathan and Samantha

ps. Oh god please dont let me miss the ski season....

Hi, welcome to the forum.
We are a family living in Christchurch. We moved here seven months ago. We also like drinking beer so count us in.

Welcome to the forum :clap I know (knew?!) Basingstoke, city of roundabouts, quite well when I was at school in Winchester - ahhh the chlorine of the shopping mall! :p (which, surely, has been demolished?!).

We're just outside Chch and a good stopping off place for Hot Choc (or beers!) after the slopes :nice1

We've been here 3.5 years now and are loving it down here.

Thanks for the welcome everyone! I'm sure you understand how exciting this all is for us. We just cant wait to get cracking!

Sun, Macs Gold, snow, hot chocolate, Macs Gold, a proper back yard, a beach with less than 10,000 people on it, a commute to work of less than 15 minutes, and another Macs Gold is all I want for this year :raebanana
