Hey Jon and Lou,
I completely understand sofa thoughts, only something as drawn out as waiting for NZIS to reply would drive normal(?) sane folks to even consider exporting a sofa from Dorset to NZ. Personally I would save on sofa miles and feel virtuous, plus help local sofa economy when you arrive. My whiling away activities recently have included going to cash converters with a car load of electrical goods, coming out with 100 euros then realising that wouldn't even pay for the translation bills that we are running up.... I also am considering "getting fit for NZ" but haven"t yet made it to the pool...the most pleasing thing, and free, has been to give loads of garden plants away to friends, so, keep sane and smiling!! It will be spring or summer when we finally get there, and as everyone says here, worth the wait.
