we are here.
Nearly two weeks in} (busy but lovin it!!!)
managed to get a rented house in Rolleston, children started at rolleston school yesterday. Bought a car last week from Gardner motors on Moorhouse avenue CHC. I start work Monday.....It seems to have flown by due to how busy we have been but things have been relitively easy to sort out.
thanks to everyone for advice we have recieved leading upto this point.
Hope to speak and maybe meet up with some of you soon....

Re: we are here.
We looked at houses in Rolleston but folk kept telling us it was very windy out that way and there's a prison so we ended up not buying.
Hope you continue to settle in well

Re: we are here.
Welcome to Rolly guys! Congrats on getting stuck into things so quickly. All that runing around doesn't half make time fly, doesn't it?! Sounds like you are settling down rapidly, and I hope all continues well for you.
If you ever want a catch up, drop us a PM on here, as we'll be out to our section in Rolleston over the next couple of weekends and if you're around too we'll bring a case of Speights along to share.
It would be great to get your thoughts on life there. We heard from our future neighbours today that you can see snow on the hills behind Rolleston already - this true?
All the very best,
Wiz'n'Ton
