Oh well guys at last we have arrived, House sale did complete on the 4th and we flew on the 5th so great.

Richard had his party in the empty house on the Friday what a mistake the house was a bloody mess we spent all day Saturday scrubbing walls and floors as well as getting in a industrial cleaner never again as the saying goes you learn by your mistakes but what a mistake and Richard was so up set and said Mum I wish I had listerned to you and Dad because I lost control but I now know who my friends are. So one lesson learnt.

It has been a bit strange to say the least, The plane journey 1st half was great loads of room so we all had loads of leg room and 4 seats so did lots of sleeping great,2nd part crap to say the least full from Hong Kong but not to sad had to be done.

Auckland airport was good got through no worries Passport stamped away we go,Brother met us and down to Hamilton we went.

Peter started work on the Monday no keeping him at home, Richard went and joined a football club and went training on the Tuesday and played his first game on the saturday lost 1-0 but he enjoyed it. Just pleased that they are ok, Me I am lost and want some house keys and car keys lol.

Been house hunting and lucky for us Bother knows someone in real estate and she took me out on the Tuesday and found one , and going on now should be conditional any day OMG Bank accounts being done tommorow so I have ben busy just does not seem like it. So will keep you up to date ith everything.

Hi Pam.

Lovely to hear from you. Glad you all arrived safe and sound.

You sound just like me, cos I would be lost without my house and car keys too !! Think not having a car would probably kill me....well alright, that comment was a bit dramatic, but you know what I mean !!

But just to think that you have only been there 2 weeks and bought a house....... :raebanana :raebanana :raebanana PICCIES, we want PICCIES.

Keep us updated, cos you know what a nosey lot we are.... :laugh

Pam !!!!! Great to hear how you're getting on. It only seems like a few days since you phoned me after getting off the plane - can't believe it's been 2 weeks already.

Hope all goes well with the house purchase (alot easier over here eh), and that you soon get the much covetted house and car keys.

I'm off to UK on Sunday for 3 weeks (almost) so won't be able to arrange that long awaited shopping trip. Will see you asap afte getting back.

Keep on keeping on - great to have you here.

Great to hear you've made it and are finding your way around.
Pleased that Peter has started work and Richard is getting involved with the locals. :nice1
Very good luck with the house hunting, hope you're sorted soon.
Welldone to you all.

We'll be flying out on the 20th Sept but taking a small detour via the Cook Isl. so should hit NZ around the 28th. We'll have to arrange a get together once we're over there.
