Lookin about…
Today we’ve spent a good portion of the day realestate hunting. We’ve been to three open homes, had a look at about 8 blocks of land (one of which we realllly like!), and this evening we’re looking through dozens of ‘recycled’ homes online, with the plan to go see those we like. Today’s been a good day, and we’ve had a lovely time, with the planning and dreaming of possibilities…. Who wouldn’t want to live here!!

How to get rid of unwanted ‘friends’….

But there comes a point, when you have to wonder, just how brutal you need to be for that other couple to understand,…

What this top 50 business we hear you ask??!!??? Wellllll…. In the “Top 50” is the ranking for a certain Real Estate Sales Executive we all know :))) And #1 ranking for the whole of the Tablelands!! The official invitation arrived in the mail last week, (all black and gold and embossed and very swish!) so in about a fortnight we jet off to Brisbane for a few day – to schmooze amongst the…

Hobbiton
Our Visit To The Shire: Hobbiton was one of the BIG “must do” things on our NZ list, and we woke up very excited to be heading off on our Adventure. A little trepidation was involved though, after having enforced down-time in Rotorua, due to the insidious thermal sulphur fumes that you just can NOT get away from, as from what we had seen in the tour stuff, it looked like Hobbiton had some serious hills… A bit of background here: We’d both got a very large smothering of the fumes, when we had gone to one of the local parks in Rotorua to see the bubbling pools, and had…
