Hi Nici
Will tell Peter about Roger - they can watch Spurs and cry together
Also meant to add -we have a pet - a springer spaniel called Will short for William as in the character in 'just William', dread to think what sort of mischief he'll get up to in NZ!

Re: Who's who???
Michelle, 27 - was a Registered Childminder in UK, now waiting to train to do same thing here only with qualifications this time! Oh yeah Cook, Cleaner, Maid, Nurse, Comforter, Gardener, Decorator, Shopper, Public Speaker, Interior Designer, Secretary ... I could go on?!
Carl - 34 - in IT - likes Sports
Jordan - 10 - doesn't even know his own name if not prompted, can remember computer games like they are his life though! Spent faaaar too long playing games in the UK and boy are we paying for it! Home schooling him and god it's frustrating, he has NO concentration here!
Ashley - 3 in 2 weeks - was a right bruiser who can't talk very well, waited a year for speech therapy and STILL no initial appointment in the UK, has now taught himself as well as he can! Now he's calmed right down and is a right clown, always makes people laugh and is such a cutie in his glasses. Can count to 17 and can sing the Alphabet song too lol
Madison - 21m - right little madam! selective deafness, specially when she's sticking her fingers in plug sockets or eating Kiwi's whole from the fruit bowl. Is a little Kiwi from birth I reckon - she hates shoes and socks and will remove them at every and any opportunity, even in car! Her favourite pastime is to slap me or Carl and laugh! She is a cutie too, but she KNOWS this! Can count to 10 too
No pets, but got my eyes on a kitten when we set down permanent roots!

No pets, but keep looking at puppies in the pet shop. Sadly, they don't have hamsters in NZ otherwise we would've had one by now.
