Sorry,5am waffle. Gets me every time. We've just played cards again-kids and parents are all sound asleep. If my future employers are reading this-the women played cards,I polished all the drip stands anddid two months shift rotas,whilst referring every child to the dietitian. Confidentially.

Yes nights again. Middle one currently,last one tonight. I love em. As long as everyones well,it's ace. Thanks for the pint logo-just what I need to talk more sense. Wish I was in bed. Didn't get any sleep today,bloke was paving his path-which he's perfectly allowed to do at 12.00,havn't been in the 'hood long enough to say owt. Then I cycled to work (if you could see me-you'd know how hilarious a sight that was-my wife and kids actually came to the door to see me off,and all laughed!!),so now I'm shattered.

You addicted? no you should take a look at the OZ forum - those guys are addicted LOL. A guy called 'fraser' 'bix' and many more have posted thousands, so many (over 10000)that the counter has stopped working!!
love your posts- I'd better send you karma to help you sleep today

We're open to anything on the job front when we get there. I'm in residential lettings and property management and really want to stick with that and have my own agency. But much more regulated over in New Zealand - which to be honest is a good thing. I'm the only employee with a qualification and the only one who's a member of the National Association of Estate Agents here - and course and membership paid for by me!! But shall explore how to go about it in more detail before we get there. Dave's a landscape gardener/maintenance man etc. But used to be a publican and chef! Oh he of many (well hidden) talents!

What about you? Jobs? Children etc?
