Mrchris40

Hi, we arrived on the 6th, and now have housing etc sorted and living in Browns Bay. Laura loves socialising (really missing her friends in the UK) and I need to get back into dinghy sailing! We have also both just got our learner motorcycle licenses. Looking for meet ups with like minded types (we are early 40's, but kids old enough not to have to come everywhere with us!!).

Hi, we moved from Cambridge, UK to Christchurch and now due to the earthquakes moved to Campbell's Bay on 9 December. My wife is also missing her friends. We have 2 teenage children. Let us know if you would like to meet up and we can exchange details.

Mrchris40

Hi, a meet up sounds great. Our kids (Jade, Bradley and Faye) are 18, 16 and 13. PM me your details and I will do the same by return.

Cheers, Chris and Laura

Hi Chris & Laura, unfortunately we are unable to PM you as we need to have at least 3 posts, are you able to PM us and we will then get in touch with you

Hi, we are newbies. Both early 40's with a 16 yr old daughter. We both work in advertising and daughter is horse mad. We all love to party!

Welcome to our NZ forums & the North Shore Mrchris40 & Watties. Hope you are settling in well. It will no doubt be a relief to you to be away from the earthquakes Watties.

Taylor Family please do let us know when you have arrived so that I can update the UK to NZ January thread. Have a safe & uneventful flight
