So that's why my favourite colour is green…
Spurred by an unquenchable jealousy Luke and I have started to make plans to follow in Michelle’s footsteps, strides that will take us to the other side of the planet. The plan was hatched over brunch this morning; the arrival time in Heathrow airport will be March 2008. That gives us just under 2 years to save, which is a fair amount of time, and I will have qualified for full teacher registration. At the moment we only intend to stay for a year. It will be easy for me to get teaching work in the UK and Luke is a British citizen so that will be in his favour.
Therefore the only possible obstacles that could arise are:
- We aren’t able to live stringently enough to save the money
- We break up (I of course would still go)
- Pregnancy – God forbid
- Extreme terrorist activity.
So, Costi you have to stay over there till then. Kate and Mike should also be over that way at that time too. Speaking of Kate – I know you are reading this Kate and it is about time you commented on something. Don’t be afraid, the first time is always awkward and even a little painful but pleasure from the act will come in time.
Of course, all of this means that I will have to cut back on shopping. Since I have been employed a previously hidden obsession for new clothes and shoes has surfaced.
Adios. Kate – comment!

2008...thats ages away! :-( Get a 2nd and third job and come before then! I need to persuade my company that I need to work in NZ for a year!
It's not that far away, really...
I don't think I could handle teaching during the day and waitressing at night either.
New Zealand is a great place though, you'd love it here. Maybe. It's not overly exciting.
You have hills and snow dont you? Thats good enough for me!
Yes we have plenty of hills, mountains and volcanoes.
you'll enjoy iy but there is a simple rule to remember....London is ALWAYS more expensive than you think it will be
What about Scotland?
depends where you go. it is cheaper than london tho - everywhere in the world is...except tokyo
Scotland is really nice, and not as expensive as London (well maybe Edinburgh is?) Glasgow is worth a visit. Not a lot to see in Dundee though. Aviemore is very picturesque, but take your hiking boots or ski's depending on what time of the year you go :-)
