Emigrating to Hamilton on 30th November from Essex, England
 

Hi everyone

Myself, my wife and 2 year old daughter are emigrating to the Glenview area of Hamilton, New Zealand on the 30th November.

We just wanted to introduce ourselves to the site :thumbsup:

We're really looking forward to it!


Cheers

Glenview, not to far from the River and you've got Hamilton gardens just round the corner :sunglasses:
Hope it goes smoothly for you

Hi Al, I'm miles away now. I used to live in Cambridge until May then I moved up to Auckland.
I still pop down to Tron every now and again to visit friends.

I think you'll be in time to attend the big xmas tree switch on in Hams which your little un should like
and I would also recommend taking a trip out to the Mormon Temple at Temple View a bit nearer to xmas
as they put up loads of lights all around the place.

Well that sounds like a plan Col!

We haven't had the flight yet lol

We leave Heathrow on the 30th November :fingerscrossed: that proposed strikes on that day don't mean we have to rearrange the flights though!

Re: Emigrating to Hamilton on 30th November from Essex, England
 

Good luck for tomorrow, hope u guys make it before the strikes:)

It's going to be a 'play it by the ear' scenario for everyone. We called Korean today (Monday) and have been told to call tomorrow, to check if there's an update for Wednesdays travel from Heathrow.

Originally it was thought that it'd only really affect inbound flights to Heathrow, however I think in reality it's bound to have a knock on effect to outbound flights too.

We won't be the only ones in the same predicament, but if it was only me and Hannah it wouldn't be so bad hanging around the airport. It's no fun though when you've got a young child :(

Best of luck for your arrival.

Best advice I was given was to never say no to an invitation, you might feel a little
awkward at first but you'll soon find and make friends
