Hi from the Lakes
Hi. Thought I'd better get round to introducing myself as I have spent the last month reading the New Zealand threads but not posting to any.
The family , me ( Jo), hubby Anton and kids Caitlin 9 and Reuben 8 today!!! are hopefully moving to the Auckland area in September. Hubby has a job with the Department of Corrections as a psychologist and I am going to be a mum. I feel I deserve it having been a primary school teacher for the last 14 years.
Just waiting on the final stamp on the PR form and have just got an offer on the house.
Can't wait to move. I have never been to NZ so will be a big adventure. At last I'll be able to support a national team that actually wins...tee hee!

Hi Ceri,
Small world isn't it? I've just done a parachute jump in Cark!
Whereabouts in Auckland are you headed?

Re: Hi from the Lakes
Yep, but only the once and then strapped to an instructor... that sounds really crude if you haven't read the earlier posting!
We are still debating where to settle, Hubby working in Albany so we are swinging between Titirangi and the Hibiscus Coast.
Can't wait to skydive in NZ
