LOL, we have a Dunedin just down the road from us. A Scottish town which we visit occasionally. Has good antique stores and stuff!! :D

Re: dunedin
 

Funny you mentioning Dunedin, as OH employer said that is where we might be going first. We were initially ChCh first but things changed. I went on another thread 'choice of area to live in' and I asked about Dunedin - check it out. Are you moving out there or just thinking about all your options. We go the end of the month :scared: .

Re: dunedin
 

hi there,
we are hoping to move to new zealand maybe sept or oct. but cant decide where :confused:
all depends on where hubby can get work really.
hes not in skilled migrant category.
but we do have plenty time suppose to check it all out.
so is it dunedin your off to at the end of the month?

Re: dunedin
 

Well it was mentioned, originally it was ChCh but they seem to think Dunedin will be our first port of call. Got our visas this morning, OH got a job to go to.They want us out there late Nov. but cant see us getting there until maybe the first week in Dec. Quick when I think that we only applied mid Sept. We did originally wanted to go to Australia, but was not meant to be. Anyway no creepy crawlies in NZ. What does your OH do?

Re: dunedin
 

What line of work is your OH in. Mine is a nurse and has applied for Dunedin amonst others but we havnt had a lot coming back our way up to now :(

Moving to Dunedin

The Brochure also available in CD Rom format

We live in Dunedin and love it. The lifestyle is pretty special here. Everything is very accessible and the city is large enough to have plenty on. Can be cold at times (it is most southerly of NZ main centres), but also tends to be dryer than most places in NZ.

Feel free to pm me if you have specific questions.

Hi

We were in Dunedin last weekend where we met up with some friends from the UK who will be moving over next year.
I have enclosed some photos of the city centre and a beach ( St Kilda) which is only 5 minutes from the centre.
We liked Dunedin, especially the little bars in the city centre. :beer:

Very friendly place.

Re: dunedin
 

thanx for the pics :D
it does look lovely too,but actually everywhere we,ve looked looks lovely.
thats why we cant decide :confused:
and someone today said have look at north shore,im not sure but is that auckland?
funny enough aucklands the place we,re not too keen on ,just because the size. the place itself looks great.
think maybe just too big for me.
colins job is external wall insulator,hes also learning interior plastering at moment. so thats why we have to look at cooler places.
originally i wanted to go to napier .
anyway we,re not planning selling up here until maybe june july.
gives me loads time to keep chopping and changing.
well since its friday i,ll have one of them they look good :beer:

Re: dunedin
