Hi all

Id thought id let you know how this pomme is getting on in New Zealand

Well i received my work permit no problems (phew) then it was the task of getting a job

I applied to a local firm called Mitre 10(a bit like B&Q) and i managed to get a job after 2 interviews as a bathroom and heating sales assistant :2t:

Its great lots to learn and the chance to meet new people plus a healthy discount on tools ect cos i need it
because we bought a house too :blink:

Basically we went into the bank told them about our situation and they offered us a mortgage no problems(it did help that the bank manager was from leeds)

So this is the place we have bought <a href="http://www.myplace.co.nz/listing/UPP11840" target="_blank">Oldies house</a> as you can see its the estate agents photos so its not my 7 seater chair in there lol

all in all its going really well and im just waiting for the weather to turn because its very wet at the moment

hope you are all well and keeping outa trouble

cheers speak soon oldie :) :gsv: :hb:

Hey Oldie, great to hear you have landed on your feet mate. Send us some pix when you get in your home, we would like to see them I am sure.


Lol at the bank manager from leeds working over there too, small world.


Best of luck to you and yours

Well done mate. For some reason I missed this thread, probably because I was away camping! Brilliant, travel to the other side of the world to get UK weather :2t:
