If your driving from ChCh to Timura turn off SH1 at Rakaia and take Thompsons Track to get you on to the Inland Scenic route 72 via Geraldine to Timura its much more interesting than SH1. If you want to take a detour to Methven let me know i'm about for a cuppa most days.

Re: Visiting nz.
Hi
If you can, you should try and visit Tauranga, the Bay of Plenty. There are loads of Brits here, living here is amazing. We emigrated here from the UK 8 months ago. What line of work are you looking for ????????
If you are heading this way, would be pleased to meet up with you.

Re: Visiting nz.
Thank you, should be good, really looking forward to seeing the country, and meeting people. Off the expo in london at weekend hope to get some really good information. I spoke to nzqa tonight, they got qualls late february, still not assessed, but mentioned i was comming out to get job offer prior to submitting EOI, and they're go to try and hurry things up, plus i said i'll pop in on way through/ so all good.
