We don't ask a lot on here .

Silver, you overlook a graveyard? Ooooh, spooky . At first I thought they were giant chess pieces.

This is a good opportunity to bring this thread to the fore again. Any more of you who would be obliging enough to have a photo taken of yourselves accompanied by a MoveToNZ sign ? The aim is to collect together a pictorial thread of members from around the world, linked together by the MTNZ sign. If you don't want to appear in the photo yourself, just take a typical view from your country with the sign on it. As you can see from my own efforts, it involves no cost at all as we don't expect a professionally signwritten notice, just a legible scrawl on a piece of paper will do.

Yes, Mother, there is a cemetery across the street from us. But we are in a 6th floor condominium corner unit. The other view is the forest which, thankfully, is lovely. Just can't see it currently due to the weather. Here are a few more pics of my hubby and myself with sign! From yesterday late afternoon. Yes that is SNOW.

Wonderful effort, Silver, but makes me feel even colder seeing that snow. Winter here in Oman is supposed to be the best time of the year, mild and sunny, but it's very windy and freezing cold. No one can understand what's happened and, with no heating in the houses, it's getting a might unpleasant to say the least.

Woohoo, nice one Carl

Oooo, the old MoveToNZ sign has been in a few places around the world now, quite exciting

Should have done my bit and taken one when I went back to Wales for a holiday recently, but I didn't think of it

Anyway, thank you Carl - nice to see you getting into the spirit of it
