thanx for reply - hit a huge snag at moment. Elderley Mum just been diagnosed with breast cancer, op on Friday - think we'll be postponing to next year - that'll please daughter as she can finish her GCSE's.
UK seems all about work work work. Hope (and feel) the ethos in NZ is more about work to live not live to work :icon_lol:

keep replying to me - I need all the help I can get.
did ask earlier will my Ericson P910i work over there? it's got my life in it.

Hi Carol,

First and foremost, sorry to hear about your mum. We'll all keep our fingers crossed for her and hope everything goes well on Friday.

Don't feel too bad about postponing your plans - NZ will wait for you! You're pretty much right about the Kiwi attitude to work - people do work hard over here, but they also like to play hard and relax too. I think it's also true that whatever your job is, the workplace is a much more laid-back, friendly place to work.

As far as I know, your Ericson will work here, but because it's a British based phone, any calls you make within NZ, even local calls, will be charged at international rate. Check with your provider though.

Good luck with everything ::):
