I would have imagined you to be a big hairy dog running up to and jumping on folks who dare stand their place. Harmless maybe, but scary!

Perhaps you should have a postscipt on your posts reminding people of your respect for speaking openly, so that forum members can prepare themselves (and cover all bases) before tapping out their posts.

So glad to hear Dawn that you and your family are happy here in NZ. Some of us immigrants who have been here longer would say you are still on your 'honeymoon', still remembering that 'high' after the excitement of the move and full of optimism for the future. It may be (like myself) that in two years you will still feel blessed to be in NZ, but many of us know of immigrants (of differing nationalities) who have gone back 'home' for various reasons or have resigned to the 'put up and make the best of it' attitude as their dream has been slow to materialise. I am sure I speak for us all in that we wish them good energy and happiness.
