Spent 3wks in NZ a couple of years ago, visiting friends. Have very fond memories of the place & the people I met. So hi to you.

The friends I visited have now moved to Africa, but other friends have since moved to NZ, so who knows - I may be back...

At least you are awake in Australia at the same time as us! I would n't quite put Aus and NZ in the same box (a bit like England and France?) but hello anyway!

Are there only two of us from NZ here then??

At the moment I think yes!

People come and go though; there have been a lot from NZ who registered. So stick around, because there are too many Aussies here and we need a good balance! :mrgreen:

Hi Islanz, I spent February and March in NZ, but we stayed on the North Island all the time, just so much to see, What a fabulous place, it blew us away.And what a welcome we got, smashing people,and fishing mad as well!

kind regards Beekeeper.

Hi,

Cheers
