Orewa's sun-set


Orewa's Sun rise


New House

Well we have found our future house for the next twelve months, its in Orewa. We dont move in until the 5th May, our furniture will be arriving next week and we shall have to store it until the date. I can now relax and not go visiting houses. We went to a BBQ yesterday and met some people some recent immigrants some not so. The kids are still on holiday and they have been meeting up with some school friends or we have been going out. The weather is still warm and sunny which is good for April, mind you i can feel the temperture dropping at night, and my hot water bottle is on the container. No major crisis at the moment, No i want to go back to the UK i'm missing my friends YET, but it really feels like we are on holiday altho we are in a routine.

Happy Easter to you all back home, From us all here in sunny New Zealand, ( well it is for the minute) Josh i was looking in our local paper today but nothing for you yet mate i shall continue to look, and who was it i was looking for a rich handsome bachelor man for, well whoever its for i havn't found him as yet. I am still looking for a place to live at the moment and someone decided to put Easter in this weekend and everything has shut down, its how the UK used to be. Its Good Friday today and we have been out for lunch at Torbay beach and sunbathing. We had to go down Penzance St to get there.


Carly what are you doing up a tree?


This is not an Aprils Fools Joke, they dumped tons & tons of snow on the beach and we had professional snow borders here, this was taken 11.30 at night mark & I went out for a drink and walked home via the beach and the snow was still there.
