Hi from Tavistock
Hi, I'm j19fmm's other (but some would say not better) half. We're not long back from a superb Xmas & New Year on NZ's North Island and are contemplating emigrating.
We fell in love with Waikato, particularly Cambridge, so the plan is to get out there in the next couple or 3 years.
My plumbing qual's aren't quite up to NZ PGDB required standards so i've got a gripping couple of years at Night school/Day release coming up
, but that's the plan.
I'm new to all of this so be gentle with me

Re: Hi from Tavistock
May the force of PTFE tape and boss white always be with you. May your knees never seize. May your joints & parts never leak. 
Have some karma to help speed you to being that NVQ3 fully certified UK plumber then mate

Thanks very much for your kind offer, i've started one called NZ Plumbers. It's had a few views but no replies yet.
Bye for now,
Paul.

Re: Hi from Tavistock
We stayed with my Missus' cousin in Hamilton for a few days between xmas and new year. He lives in Beerescourt and has the Waikato river flowing past the back of his house, it was great.
