We are sad to be going and I'll be lost without such an obvious blog subject!<BR/><BR/>Part of emigrating is the sense of kinship with other who follow, are following or have followed the same path, I'll miss that. My love and very best to you all.<BR/><BR/>JGJGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01527911238592871718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7261293657412938045.post-52229933167581775882008-04-30T21:50:47.048+01:002008-04-30T21:50:47.048+01:00As a family who were at one point considering moving to NZ and still may do sometime your blog provided a balanced view i thought - not all positive, so realistic and gave things to think over and consider which was good, well at least in the uk you will have lots of cheap books to purchase!!! would be interesting to know what you missed about nz, presumably the weather and relaxed vibes?? my friend from oz thinks its basically pot luck if u settle somewhere, she has in melbourne which surprised me, anyway cheers for sharing u thoughts on the NZ move.......

The world is becoming a smaller place and who knows what the future holds for any of us. I guess you have to live for the moment - I know that's always worked for us. It sounds like a fantastic job opportunity and I'm sure you'll all have a great time back in Blighty!<BR/><BR/>Looks like we'll be heading out to NZ around the same time your heading back - strange how things keep on moving around in the great cosmic confusion of it all.<BR/><BR/>Seriously - have a great trip back. You know that you'll always have friends in NZ to come back and visit. If it wasn't for you we would not have met Mike & Marrisa and Dan and Sarah - Forever indebted.<BR/><BR/>Live long and prosper!<BR/>Craig, Rach & Myles xCraighttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15430186603000283274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7261293657412938045.post-28141303625196361512008-04-26T03:29:00.087+01:002008-04-26T03:29:00.087+01:00Best wishes on a smooth move with your young family. I have to say a little part of me is envious. Though I love day-to-day life here in NZ there isn't a day that passes when thoughts of my loved ones in the UK don't fill my heart. Whenever we're reunited there is a feeling of such completeness. The last time we were together our children really connected with their Grandparents. It's such a special relationship and I know, even with technology, our children do miss out (as do the Grandparents). We've been here ten year's now; but I would love to consider a move back for a couple of years - just to give it a go. Perhaps we will.<BR/><BR/>All the very, very best. It's been great meeting you in 'cyber space' and I've really enjoyed sharing your adventure.<BR/><BR/>Make sure you enjoy those wonderful beer gardens when you get back!<BR/><BR/>Cheers, SarahSarah Leehttp://www.chezlee.co.nznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7261293657412938045.post-11946987334979235252008-04-19T21:04:03.773+01:002008-04-19T21:04:03.773+01:00Well I can say we were shocked when we saw your Facebook update.
