Your thinking of Australia, where their are restrictions on foreigners buying houses.

In NZ it's open season anyone can buy a house their, and that is one reson house prices are going up so much.

Thanks Paul for confirming.

Just starting another day at the office - notice you are in Brisbane - your day done? No doubt the suns shining for you there too. Not so lucky in Scotland I'm afraid!

Thanks for the reply.

I start work at 08:00 (your time 22:00) and finish at 17:00 (your 07:00) going by the time on the site clock.

Afraid weather is a bit iffy at the moment, been raining for the last couple of days, but not complaining as we've just come off a drought that lasted more than 12 months and it didn't rain once in Brissy. Just imagine typical Scottish summer day and you'll be spot on for weather here at the mo.

Have a good weekend over there! Where are you from originally in NZ?
Do you prefer Australia or NZ?
