Hi Guys,
I just thought I would let you all know that today is my last day at work before we make plans to travel out to Aucklands North Shore. We leave on March 19th from Heathrow!
This will be my last post for a few weeks while we get settled and I find an internet cafe to use until we get a house sorted out.
We had a rental lined up in Torbay, North Shore but I found out this morning that it has fallen through.....gulp!
I'm busy now trying to find alternative and have booked into a motel for a few weeks!
I also wanted to say how much I've enjoyed talking to you all over the past months. This forum is addictive and full of such great characters I hope that we can one day meet up and have a beer and a barby!
If any of you are in the Auckland area and would like to meet up in early April that would be great!
Until my next post, may I wish you all good luck in your plans and if I can help in anyway I will once I get back on-line.
Cheers Karl  |

I'm jealous too. 
If we end up in Auckland (instead of Wellington), we'll defintely look you up! Looking forward to hearing how you and your family are settling in.
All the best,

Wishing you all the best, Karl, and can't help but say I am more than a little jealous!  Please keep us posted, and I know there are loads of us who would be eager to hear even the most trivial 'getting my new household together' info you can spare! I have always enjoyed your posts too, and look forward to hearing from you again soon!
