Hi
We moved out to nz in 2005 and came back in 2007. I wanted to return while hubby and 4 children wanted to stay in nz, we made the decision to return. There are jobs to be had here, just need the right area and the children are so much better off with their friends, social life, schooling is fantastic once again. We have no regrets about the move back, just miss the weather and scenery.

Hi, we are just over on third line and west oak trails, bout 5-6 mins. May be interested in the bed as we have been here 8 months and are still on the floor!! Can you give me a quick description of the bed. Ta.

The reason why we haven't bought much yet, is because the jury is still out as to whether we will stay here. Its a really hard descion as as you say, the kids are enjoying it! Having said that, the friends they had back home and the school they were in was fantastic so i know they could settle back - i would miss seeing them ice skate though - they both LOVE it!!

hi

yeh its difficult - not easy for us by any means - but we (rather myself) have 100% decided on going back and hope for the best back in the UK

small world.................we are only 10mins from you guys

bed- come over and take a look if you like - its new and mattress is only 6 months old.....give me a call tmrw if u like - 647 213 6590

thanks

Sunny Dulai

yes - not happy - exactly like me - we dreamed about this place for 4 years while trying to get the PR card - and now the reality of being here without family and things not working out financially - like higher house prices, jobs lost,bad exchange rate for us brits, economic downturn everywhere hasn't helped any of us.

at the end of the day you feel how you feel and if at the time it feels right then do it

we felt it was right to come last year and now we feel its right to go back so whatever - just take the step - look......- many people talk about doing this stuff and never do -

at least we all took the steps and dealt with things accordingly - its our hassle and we're the ones that did it - be proud and just do what is right for you - good luck
