Title: Wish Me luck!!!!
Post by: JiMbOb789 on 16 July 2008, 19:02:30
Well its final, im leaving for new zealand on august 15th!!!! :)
Just gave in my months notice, visas came through yesterday and now am ready to go.
My new boss is waiting for me out there so im all ready.
I tell you what, it was bloody expensive but hopefully well worth it :y
I will still be on OOF but as a commodore (ozzy omega) so maybe you guys might be able to help me with that if i have any problems :y

Anyway, wish me luck :y

Jamie

Mate!! The very best of luck!! I mean that. When I am next over we will have to meet. I go to south island about once a year to see the family.

You will love it!! Long term I may even be going myself, deffo south island. Lots of job opportunities without the hassle of the UK.

If you are near Christchurch go and see my uncle.... he is MD of the brewery!! Very convenient!!

all the best bud!

All the very best to you and your family in the new adventure about to start in your life! :y :y :y

Well done for being bold enough for this huge step, one which I admire people for doing!   ;) ;)

Have a really good time and please keep in touch with us then on the OOF as promised;  I'd personally love to know how you get on with the Commodore. 8-) 8-) 8-)  Are you sure though that this isn't really a toilet on wheels, with some NZ joke for Brits involved somewhere along the line?  ::) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

No seriously, all the best with this excellent car and everthing else Jamie! :-* :-*

Best of luck to you and yours. :D

I hope those lovely doggies will settle into their new home with your family; and please hug them tightly (from all of us) before you depart; they will surely miss you, as will we! :'(
