hi bluefoot,
thanks for your reply, we have a small amount of info regarding whangarei. people in that area have sent me details on where and where not to live. will head for whangarei next year and see for ourselves it looks lke a wonderful relaxed place as do many parts of nz.
are you looking to go to nz also ? seems a long way off at the moment and we are really exicited about going. well must go for now (working nightshift ) need to get my beauty sleep :wink:



speak soon take care
SANDRA :lol:
