    Johnsonville's the place to be!! Good amenities, shooping, swimming pool, 8 mins to city (well, longer if you go via Makara!). Shouldn't be too much dramas for a place at $400... Even a local Sallies to pick stuff up from.

    Sorted now guys cheers.
    Moving into a 3 bed unfurnished place today, just bought 2 beds and rented the appliances

    It's down near Island Bay so an open bbq will follow soon.

    Cheers for the advice, and to Paul & Vicky for the beers and chat last night!

    All I need now is internet installing, and I can get sorted

    Stand on the grid, pee at the stainless steel urinal ahead of you. If in a good mood see how high you can get it up the urinal. Don't pee too far downwards you'll splash your shoes.

    Or, try urinal racing!
    Using one stream only, see how many lengths of the urinal you can do by "crabbing" sideways to each end of the urinal.

    Welcome to Welliewood.

    option 1 , Wait for one decent southery, head for a hilltop , With your back to the wind you should be able to hit every public loo in Wellington. Perhaps catch you at Pauls.
