You girls rock, I just love getting all these comments...so since blogger doesn't let you send an email to answer them, I'm going to take a leaf out of Vicki's blog (so to speak) and do it on here.
Hannah - We are off to the South Island, for a bit of a reconnisance mission. Our plan is to shift south, so we are checking out housing, we did buy in Invers last year, but for a number of reasons it fell through. A lot will depend now on what happens in the housing market, once we have this house renovated and finished. I'm sure it will all work out though!
Janine - Thanks for the blogline instructions chickee, yep pretty clear where I went wrong, 'cos I thought they emailed you...and hey if you want another excellent book to read - and this goes for you all - I got this out of the library and it's a real eye opener and thought provoking, it is Out of the Darklands (umm or it could be Into the Darklands!) by Nigel Latta. Lots of you may know him from his writing in a popular parenting magazine.
Neen - You go girl! Hope you have your Holden gear all ready and polished for the event! And you don't need to cook, that's what Mike's for isn't it??? Or the local takeaway shop...LOL
Kelly - Hey thanks for stopping by my blog! It would be great to have a little Wellington get together with you, Janine and Beverley. I will be down on Friday the 18th of April, and we are thinking that we will get there about lunchtime, so I could either meet at Kiwi Scraps sometime in the afternoon, or if it's easier for all of you, I could meet for coffee (or dessert!!) in the evening.
Angela - Good news about the Kiwi Scraps hubby area, that should keep him busy, unless he wants to carry my basket (it will be light I'm sure!!)trailing after me around the shop! Hope your foots on the mend.
Alison - Yep, I"m with you, leave Thursday night, then there's more time for shopping on Friday LOL!
Debbie - Unfortunately even with the shop opening at the early hour of 9am, I will be sailing off to they wild blue yonder courtesy of Toll shipping. My ferry leaves at 8.25am which means we have to be down there at least an hour earlier - and I go for the earlier bit usually, 'cos first on means first off at Picton!
Julie - Jules, your suggestion wins hands down my friend! Julie said to go on Thursday night, because then it's only three weeks six days until my holiday, instead of four weeks! I like that kind of thinking!
Beverley - Yep, we will catch up. Hopefully it will be you, me, Janine and Kelly. Has your cellphone number changed from SENZ last year, ummm because being the slacker that I am it's still sitting in my phone! You Wellingtonian girls tell me what you want to do - (cos I'm on holiday so I can work with whatever, and of course we have our car, so getting anywhere...with good directions...isn't a problem!) Then I can just txt you when we hit Wellington!
Mel - I'm off to check out that www, can't wait to see the differences in scrapping stash!
Yay, Friday tomorrow!

I didn't realise that you were looking to move south - how far you thinking of moving to?
Its fun doing a post to reply to the comments.
You will have an awesome time with the Wellington girls, they are an awesome group of laddies! Sounds like a great trip you have planned there! Maybe make up a very basic scrapping kit and a mini album that you can use for detailing your trip....here is a link to one that ali edwards is doing at the moment along with a pic of her basic kit.
