Talking OMG Hubby got a job!!!

Okay, it never rains but it pours!

We actually have both been offered jobs but as one is on the Eastern side of Auckland and one on the North Shore, we obviously can't both accept them.

DH's is a permanent position so I guess we'll be going with that - bit gutted after all the work I put into the interview etc but at least WE ARE COMING!!!!

His job starts at the end of Jan 2010, so are planning on arriving at the start of Jan - time to get that ball rolling!

Oh, and kick our CO in the ***** to sort our visa out
