Oh, and been here 3 years & only had one holiday.
Lots of food I think and I have a wife...that means shoes and clothes. I guess lots was sunk into the house..I am a bit of a DiY, upgrade freak. I love houses and thus waste too much money on them..I have never seen them as investments but if you own a home in the UK for a few years you will make some profit. Not the same in NZ ....not for our current house anyway..the big, plastic money pit!!!!
