Awesome, finally got that cash unconditional offer we've been praying for! AWESOME! WAHOO! OUTSTANDING DELIGHT AND RELIEF!!:woohoo:

In a couple of weeks McJim will be off to Invercargill ahead of us to start the new job, then the rest of the Clan McJim/Chickadee will be tootling down in November to start our new Southern lifestyles.

We can plan a farewell, buy my bigger cc bike, afford to move and even start looking at houses in Invercargill. Soooo excited.

Well done! I'll see you when you get down here. Hopefully mine will sell soon too.
I guess your first major 'social' event will be the Burt Munro Challenge.

I would say that I'm going to miss you guys cause you're moving but i'm buggering off out of the country before you :)

I do know though that when I am driving my truck around all the dodgy places that I will miss riding with you and Jamie more than a whole heap of other things. I wish you the best of luck down there and I know the clan will be happier for the move.

I'll make sure I come over before I dissapear next week.

The only reason someone would leave Auckland for Invergumboot would be to escape something. What has McJim done?

Great news! We were talking with friends last night who did the big move down south early this year, from Manurewa to a small town about 20 mins from Invercargill.

They haven't regretted it for an instant, nice house, huge section, friendly people and the kids are loving going to their local school. He just sold his Holden and bought a Duc because he cant bear to travel on the roads down there and not be on a bike!

All the best for the move, I'm sure you'll love it :niceone:

Shuddup you fool, don't tell them what it's really like or we'll be flooded by motorbike riding idiots!!

I prefer my version: Real cold crappy weather with lots of snow and ice, roads covered in loose grit and cow-shit, traffic everywhere, boring unscenic flat straight roads and real unfriendly ticket-happy cops everywhere...

After McJim and family get here there will be no more room or vacancy for anybody else, nobody ever, ever, EVER....

Cheers for the well wishes guys and girls.

We'll definitely miss the KB Aucks Clan, we've met so many outstanding folks. Don't be strangers - we're still in NZ, albeit quite a distance from Aucks. Just gives a few (like Gijoe1313) an excuse for a really big pootle.

I can understand Scumdog wanting to keep the far south all to himself, it's a fab place despite being freakin cold in winter. That's what heating is for!

Hmmm...

I really think this requires investigation.

Upon receiving the license of fullness in a half dozen weeks, and the purchasing of the cruiser of joy has been completed, there may well be need of a pootle to the end of the known earth just to ensure you are correct.

And who knows?

The other half has been saying she wants out of Auckland, her corner of England was grey bleak and bone chillingly cold... cripes, sounds like we have found Nirvana!

Onya Scummy old son, we'd never have though of it without your expert reverse-psychology marketing!
