Talking One year in Christchurch!

Yup - one whole year, can you Adam & Eve it? We certainly can't! We have achieved so much in just 12 ickle bitty months, and the time has simply flown by.

Are we happy? I reckon so.

Is there room for improvement? Most definately.

Has it been worth it? In the long run - hell yeah!

We've both had ups and downs, and it has certainly been harder than we expected, but we still feel positive about NZ and about what we want to achieve here.

It has sure been better than treading water for another year as we would have been back in Sarfend. We've learnt a hell of a lot about each other that we didn't really know, and it has certainly made our relationship stronger than ever.

Emigration? - the O'Dell's from NZ say YES!

Well done! Know you've had your ups and downs but you've achieved loads in one short year so have much to be proud of. Hopefully it'll all fall into place for you this coming year. Congratulations! Keep smiling

Blimey - it really does feel like yesterday! How excited are we in that first post? I can even remember writing it.

Nice one kev&sarah - it really has taken me back. Have some of this -
