Re: Wanganui..what a.....
I have three in tow too!!! The valley is cool aye? My guys are Elise and Isabelle the 7 year old twins and Felix the 9 year old genius. The girls would love the company of your baby!! We do have enough room if you fancy a night. We have two spare rooms a 'put up up cot' from the old days and plenty of baby toys for your new guy!! PM me if you are up for it. I met Biddy thru this forum and have remained chums with him for some time. Kate and I are good cooks and huge foodies too. We have way too much grog aswell!!! Love and game of cards too...especially contract whist. Interminably dull if cards are not your thing I fully understand.

you want to play Solo - I prefer it with French trampers in alpine huts, they get pretty irate if you play the wrong cards, so you could hear the classic

Some parts of Glasgow where life expectancy is in the 40's? Surely that can't be right. I've always found Glasgow to be a pretty pleasant city full of parks, lovely Victorian buildings, many housing estates and lots of surrounding hills. There are also many poorer areas very close to very affluent areas, i.e. Byres Road and Maryhill.

Perhaps the main difference between the UK and NZ is that in the UK the poorer, lower decile area are concentrated in certain areas such as Liverpool, Glasgow and the North-East, while central London and south east England are more affluent because you need to be able to afford to live there. NZ doesn't have this kind of distinction, the wealthy and the poor live side by side, or at least in the same towns and cities.
