Hi There

Me and my family (late 30's/early 40's) and 2 daughters (4 and 7 years old) will be moving to Auckland in September 2010, so would love to meet up when we're over.

Well done and good luck.

Take care

Hi,

My hubs has been here since Oct 2008 and I have been here on and off since then. But here now permantly or until the next crisis happens over in the UK!

If you need any help just give me a shout as I have some free time and am over here so if you need anything just PM me.

So much to do it can get overwhelming, but you can and will get there!

Hi everyone,

Would love to meet up with you all.

How about a lazy Sunday lunch at the Viaduct one weekend? Auckland seems to be central?

Any other ideas of a get together?

Been in Auckland just over a year - came from Nottinghamshire - me 43 the Mrs thirty something, 2 lads 4 and 10 - I'm no expert but if anyone wants any advice based on our experiences just ask.. a beer on a Sunday afternoon wouldn't go amiss either.. when the rain stops anyway
