Re: Relocating to UK

Yes! .. They were really good.. Very good communication and good sized crate for the dog.

You're right about minting it ... I got a business class seat for less than it cost for the dog!

Re: UK debt unmanageable.. Been in NZ 6 years

Re: Coronavirus

Sorry but yes!
Here in the UK some of those who think they have the flu actually turn out to have covid-19 and aren't tested until they are so sick they need hospital treatment!

Re: returning to UK after a long time in NZ

I forgot to say that we enjoyed our time in NZ, it was a great experience and we are really glad we went.

We have no regrets about moving to NZ and none about moving back.

Re: returning to UK after a long time in NZ

We moved back in 2017 after 13yrs in NZ.

What do we miss from NZ? .. A few of the friends we made and the empty roads. That's about it really.

What made us happy we'd come back? .....
