| We have recently sold our house and are in the process of buying a farming block. Meanwhile we had to live somewhere. The little place we have in the country, makes me feel like Granny from the Beverly Hillbillies!! And just between us girls, if I took my teeth out, I would look the spitting immage of her :( Anyway have a few pictures of the place and the chooks. If anyone would like to see them, drop your name below or email me and I will send them thru. |

Helen, Yes sir-ree! I'd loved to see those pics! I know where ever you are it'll be "home sweet home".
Many blessings on the purchase of your new place. Hoping all goes well.
Hugs,
Kim

Yes, Helen, congratulations and I would love to see your new place, too! Oh, and watch that new mailbox because I'm asending you some mailart next week!
May the sun bring you new energy by day, may the moon softly restore you by night, may the rain wash away your worries, may the breeze blow new strength into your being, may you walk gently through the world and know its beauty all the days of your life. ~~Apache Blessing

Me three!! I've never seen a photo of any one's home in New Zealand,just movies, it will be a treat.And hasn't everyone had to live in a small place for a while, waiting to move (shift?) into the larger one? I certainly have. Bless you Helen!Or do I say "Good on you"..XXOOXX
PS what does a "farm block" consist of...or is that the NZ way of saying acreage? |

I'd love to see your photos! 'Bout ten years ago, DH and I decided we were going to move to NZ, but we were neither rich enough, young enough nor educated enough to be wanted or needed there--strict immigration guidelines! Still, we have NZ as our number one international vacation choice some day! It will be fun to your pictures--thank you and best wishes. |

Hi FFF, yes, a farm block consists of house and land, as aposed to a farm, which is either dairy or sheep.. Then there is also lifestyle blocks which are an acre or can be up to 5 acres.
JP, you will need to email me with an addy, as you havent got a contact on your profile thingy.
