Re: Missing home
We've been here 10 years. We came because both of out kids came with their 8 grandchildren. We were 69 yrs old when we arrived. I've been back 5 times to Southern England - my home. If it wasn't for my family I'd be long gone. We first came to visit the family 15 years ago and have seen most of New Zealand now. from far north to almost far south and I still think there's heaps more to see in UK than there is in NZ and the weather here isn't much different , depending on which part of UK you're from.. and without the benefit of Central heating and for many also no double glazing.
