Bolly for the Fairy, voddie for the poppets, lager for the pisshead
Still enjoying it, it's like we have been here for ever
I am so incredibly stiff - I went horse riding for the first time in about 5 years on Wednesday and am paying for it now. I hopw this wears off by Tuesday as I have a week of Calming and Restraint training which usually makes me ache all over. Oh well, drink up and don't dwell on it.....

Immigration wise, just found out NZIS charged me twice on my credit card for my PR!!! Hmmmm, they so don't seem to communicate between departments - probably sat next to each other and only talk by email!! And apparently need passports to open bank account in NZ from here, which of course NZIS have!!
Would have thouthgt you two would have met up by now, being relatively close?
Why tearful sweetie?

Hmmm, if you are not allowed to smack your children any more, can you employ someone to smack them for you?
CPR went well, far more in depth than UK but I now have a certificate so a for that as well!
