What can I take with me ?

Hello all,

I'm investigating into moving across to NZ. Apart from furniture (and people are saying the washing machine also!) what electrical goods can I take across ??
Do they use the same current as UK goods or do you need a power convertor of sorts, since I have a lot of electrical goods which I'd be loathe to leave behind or sell on and find they're not readily available in NZ or at a premium.

Cheers in advance,

We have done plug swaps on some appliances and others we are running off uk 4 way extension leads and just changed the one plug

Plugs are tres expensive here btw, My OH bought 25 of the :curse: things for $100 when we got here (and that was wholesale prices) The ones from the Warehouse are ok if you are gonna plug them in & then leave them but fall apart if you ever try to remove them :frown:
