Great work.  Any way of passing on a message to the escape committee that you made it out safely?

It'll take a few days to adjust to life here and the fact that everyone isn't your relation!

Thanks team yes I have discovered the land of steep steps which when palmy gives you the departing man flu is not fun as I am sure this is all part of the wellington initiation just like everyone telling me I live near garage project and I must visit it. Wait what you are telling me I have to drink beer to be accepted? Well if I have to I guess

Wellington is my fave. Waterfront is beautiful on a calm night - my absolute fave place to be.

Also, make sure you enjoy cutting shapes on the d-floor at Electric Ave. It's an institution.

Lol yes work reasons. I got a new job with fmg so I packed up my life and moved to the land of stairs beers and the phoenix. I discovered bethel woods last night (with driving down to the games last year I didn't get a chance to pop in) and that excited me. Garage project is on my to do list next week and my brother has promised me a stumble round all his favorite pubs once I am settled so things are looking up.

Aro's not that bad - it's got character, which is another way of saying its a shark hole. But it's one of those suburbs that make Wellington what it is, iconic.

Do you get any sunlight in winter? Is the mould crawling up the walls?

Aro is awesome, as long as you've got a house with a heat pump you'll be sweet. Welcome to the greatest city in the world!

Living in a fire station possibly does strange things to the mind.

Pretty sure that's Palmy.  Never been there mind you.  Especially not in 2009.

Not a fan of Vancouver, the only place that I'd live in outside of Wellington is probably Edinborough. Although Queenstown appeals.

Hannah has just broken up with Andy so that could be a good reason to move.

However I'd still prefer Mt Thomas over Summer Bay.
