Anthony,

Delighted to hear you have had a safe journey and a good start to your lives in New Zealand. May it all continue well and I hope you and the family enjoy it all - and keep us in touch.

 After purchasing a car, the next objective will be to find a garden now I guess...  ::) ;D

Terrific you had such a warm welcome in New Zealand. Surprised Lesley didn't deliver you some NZ "Fush 'un Chups"

Look forward to your future posts.

Our eldest son, David, and his wife, Mary, have just told us that we are to be grandparents in August. First grandchild, so delighted.

Do you all realize that for the first time ever, the "I'm So Happy!" (2011 version) thread outpaces the "Moan Moan Moan 2011" thread.  That's a good trend, one to be happy about. :D
