    Moving to Wellington

    Well we have a house in Wellington at last. Let the move begin....
    We couldnt find a place in Johnsonville so ended up in Tawa.
    hope it is still as nice as i rememered it as a boy chasing thoses Tawa school girls Luis is looking forward to getting his learners licence and riding his SR250 to school.
    So we are in the final stages of work and packing. Truck leaves in the 9th so it will be a slow drive/ride down the north island.Crazy I cant believe we are leaving on easter weekend But gabby has a job stright away and I start the next week.
    Gabby and I loved meeting the Auckland Kbers up here.
    Remember if you are ever in Wellington we have a spare room.
    Looking forward to meeting the KBers down there.
    Bruce & Gabby.
    If you are behind meDont ask as I am lost too.

    Looking after the you know who family was great. But I was missing doing the fun stuff. I needed to get back into the regamental side of things again. Gabby has been offered a job allready. Plus Wellington is where I was born.
    I just couldnt wear the Blues jersey

    Happy Trails you guys, I beleive you're 'upgrading' with your move and Tawa was the place of my youth when visiting rellys there. Probably changed heaps though, ya know, less earthquakes/fires with all the infrastucture that gone on over the years. Hope it all goes well on the 9th, dont let Gabby drive the truck eh?....

    Really pleased to hear that you both have jobs sorted Bruce. That is a great move for you, closer to family and a nice place to live. You will love the Welly folk, though watch out there are a few really bitchy ones down there

    Tawa is nice - DRY though so you will have to go to Porirua or J'ville to collect your booze

    Catch up when you get here!

    True? No bottle stores in Tawa? Maybe we should jump on that and start something?
    They do have a couple of pubs and a supermarket though, so the bare essentials are still available.

    Yes but you can't take your booze home - you have to stay in the pub and be all presentable like

    mmmmm start up a booze outlet you say? Not sure about my record but how does yours look sweets?

    Actually I think the people of Tawa like it dry.

    Tawa hasn't been dry for a few year now. 3 pubs and the Local Wollies caters for most taste's and regularly have some great sales if wine is your pleasure.

    Oh! and Portokiwi, welcome back to Tawa. There are a number of members here that live in Tawa so you will be made welcome. Have a safe move.
    I'm only wearing black until they develop something darker
