muffin mum is on a distinguished road
Default Hello...

We came here from the Brighton area six years ago. We have lived in Kapiti for that time and are now moving to Johnsonville, Wellington, well once our house sells. We have one 4 1/2 year old who is very proud to call herself a Kiwi.
I hope to help others in there move to this great place with it's strange ways.

to the forum, and thank you for the kind offer to help out. We've heard tell from another forum dweller that Johnsonville is a pleasant spot.

I always have to mention food, that is why I have the muffin!
Soya Mocha and a raspberry and white choc muffin, that is life.
