You know something, I left the United Kingdom 3 years ago today to move to New Zealand... I can now apply for NZ Citizenship and get my Kiwi passport!
I flew over here via KL, even posting a thread on my travels, lived on Waiheke Island for one year, got a job working in an electronics store as a sales rep, did my MCSA course, got a new high-paid IT job and moved to Auckland, met my girlfriend of 2 years, started up my own dance event company, made myself a name DJing, sorted out a deal with Tidy Trax, toured two internationals, supporting over 21 names, won a 42" tv at mcdonalds.. etc. etc.
Christ... its been a fast paced few years!
Just thought you might like to know... 3 years today

It must have been pretty scary to make such a drastic move, but looking back, imagine if you hadnt!
well you do don't you ...it is realy nice to hear of someone who has done ok and is enjoying life.
all power to you mate.
yes i have been keeping up with your posts even if nt replying.
one day ...one day ...you'll be booking me to come and sing some tom waits songs ...well ...maybe not.
It doesn't seem anything like three years ago. Makes me feel old and that I've been here too long.
kiwi's a nickname for new zealanders, like Yanks for the americans.
i liked my kiwi, pity he turned out to be a right idiot.
can you tell me why new zealanders hate being called aussie's? and vice versa... its an easy mistake to make
My boyfriends aunt from New Zealand is over at the minute and she has invited us over to stay, there is no way i could sit on a plane for that long, although apparently it only takes 10 weeks on a boat, hmmmm :chin:
Is it just me or is anyone else more impressed about the 42" TV then anything else
Not fair I want one!!!
Don't start me....
Its a friendly rivalry more than anything, its not like NZ and Aussie are bitter enemies
Ugh. I don't see why people like being Welsh. Personally I think the country sucks more than Jordan does.
