OMG, i've got 100 pm's 
thanks Pinkie will delete some of them right now.
many apologies everyone for the slip I made earlier in the thread. I must ensure I read the rules now as I'm sure they've changed a lot since I first joined.

Just read them.
Good set of rules there, helps to keep the forum on an even keel.

There are rules???????????/
What like you must wear a specific colour of underwear, or that your feet must be a particular size??????????
What are the rules? Where are they? How well are they displayed? How often are you reminded of these rules?
Seriously and joking apart, I don't recall being reminded of rules - perhaps this should be something the moderators should be aware of and suggest to the designers of the site to make more noticeable. ??

This Forum isnt the most popular by number of threads but has the least amout of politcs, bullying, thread hijacking and arguments over who's opinion is best.

I'd also like to think that people get a more balanced view on what it is like to live and work in NZ and that we can talk about the pros and cons without descending into mud slinging and getting bogged down in the mire.
It is also a useful source of information on how to go through the emigration process and what to really expect when you get here.
It's not just Brits who post here either, there are people from NZ living in other countries who also contribute and people emigrating from places besides the UK. It makes for some very lively discussion sometimes I know and can be very thought provoking.
