Hi, Anyone up for a coffee/beer weeknights or weekends in Howick area - I've been here for 8 months and looking to make some english friends.

Hi Norma, sorry you missed our previous get together. I'm free anytime at the moment but prefer daytime if that's good for you, just let me know.

Hi,
Thats a shame, but can't do day time hours as work full time M-F so evenings or day time on weekends are best for me. I will keep an eye on posting anyways as really would like to meet some other english folks in Botany/Howick area. Cheers

Will Welsh ones do?!

Hi Norma, although I prefer the day, I don't mind meeting up in the evening anytime. I'm originally from Wales as well, so if you fancy popping along as well the more the merrier!

Moving to the area on 10th May, I'm from llanelli, Hubby, Bridgend and we were living in Penclawdd before we moved!

We used to live and work in Bodelwyddan and St Asaph in North Wales. We both trained as Registered nurses and after qualifying my Husband joined the Army. We decided after 20 years that we'd had enough, so we left and thought we'd have a bit of an adventure in NZ. We've been here since September 2009 and lets just say it's been a bit of a roller coaster ride! Where are you at the moment and how long have you been here?

Just realised I'm talking to you on two threads! Been here 2 weeks. We are both teachers. We thought we'd move before the eldest moved to comp. Also my school is merging so it was a chance to get out and take redundancy. Havn't sold our house in the UK which is stressful, have tennants in at the moment which i'm not enjoying
Do you or the children speak Welsh?!
