When I left the UK I got a letter stating how much no claims I had, I presented that to State over here and they gave me that much no claims.. 6 years if I remember correctly. You should be able to do the same thing in the other direction.

You should send some Frazzles too... and Thorntons toffee...

try this link Turoa - http://lollyshop.co.nz/product_info.php ... ucts_id=90 its about 12 bucks for a kilo of black ones.

if the link doesnt work go to www.lollyshop.co.nz and search. not hard to find. and they ship them to you as well. (although why anyone would want to eat that many black jelly beans I dont know :lol: )

Have a couple of Carling's for me (oh yeah and a few pickled eggs). I'm not a Pom but I did like that Carling beer (yeah I knoew its cheap but so am I.

There is a british food shop in Auckland (browns Bay) and they sell all that pommie stuff. My wife goes there everynow and again (she's part pom and has visited the home country a few times and developed a taste for some of that stuff).

Actually my local has free wifi which i sometimes use during the day. I,m not one for staying out late drinking. I prefer to stop off on the way home have a couple and have a beer at home. Have been telling some old school mates about rallywoods and the bazebo. They think it sounds like a wicked place. Have shown them some photos. Just been chilling out for the last couple of weeks, Still trying to get my head around whats happened. Am going to start looking for a job on monday. Will just take whatever up until xmas and then jack it in b4 xmas and have a nice break over xmas and new year.
