In 2009, for many reasons that we wont go into here, we took the family decision that it was high time that we had our next big adventure. Its taken a year to sort out but finally, on April 11th 2010, we leave Blighty and family and freinds for a new life in New Zealand. This blog is for us to keep telling our story to those we leave behind and for those we leave behind to know that we miss them and they are in our thoughts.

stuff

Yay! Our stuff has arrived at Lyttelton docks in Christchurch. We watched the ship dock online - wont be long now before we get our bikes and camping stuff and knitting needles and books and computer and music and DVDs and all that other useless junk that makes you feel yourself.

The container should be on the road and with us by next week - hopefully - MAF and Customs and Excise depending. The NZers are fanatical about their biosecurity, which is understandable in some ways having over 225 exotic pest species of plants and animals causing mayhem in the environment.

So yay! All we need now is a place of our own to put it in.
