| Quote Stevo's bald dome="Stevo's bald dome"Wrong on both counts there son.
I wish I were paying 1980s prices but not even close. You can't buy a house where I live for under £250k! Food, drink, flights, transport and most other things are all considerably more expensive than back in the UK. I've been here for 10 years and return to England pretty frequently to visit friend & family so I really notice the difference. Money goes a lot further back home without a shadow of a doubt.
If you think that NZ is one of the dullest places on earth then you've clearly never been here. It's anything but mate.'"
We notice NZ was pretty expensive, food, fuel etc was not cheap.
Its a beautiful place though that has got a great lifestyle. |

It was great when I first arrived and the exchange rate was over $3 to the pound (nothing near close to that now). Reality sets in when you start earning the Kiwi dollar lol.
It's a great place to live, there's always something to do and I love how crime is rarely much of a problem down here. It took me a few years to settle in though. I lived in a few different places around the North & South Island before finally settling in Queenstown. I came pretty close to moving back home myself in 2007 but decided to stick it out and thankfully things seem to have worked out well. |

Given how many of the tippos go travelling, the fact that 4.5 million people are happy to live there suggests it can't be that bad.

My son and his g/f did a big world tour last year. They cut short time in Australia to spend extra time in NZ, which they thought was fantastic. If I remember right they spent quite some time in Queenstown.

He was Wigan bound as soon as he quit New Zealand. So whether or not he "slipped up" in a radio interview is irrelevant.

All those people who said that Samuel Tomkins would be going to rugby union have been proven wrong.

Wish they'd announce who's signed him already, the suspense is killing me.

| Quote Jim Pooley="Jim Pooley"The idea that someone from Hull, the great dude of Britain (it's where you live, learn to spell it) felt that New Zealand wasn't for them is quite ironic really.
New Zealand has been my home for 6 years now and my biggest regret is that I didn't move here sooner.......the quality of life is light years ahead of the UK. Auckland is my least favourite place here, but is craps all over Wigan from a great height......he's not homesick, he's just failed.
Aussies get their culture from a yoghurt pot.'"
Now that Sams had a successful run of games and the NZW are 4th in the table do you still have the same opinion? |
