    But you're young, you can get working visas to Oz (unlike us oldies) no mortgage to burden you you can choose to live in exciting places, start a new career - being a young mum in new build flat like your mate might well not be all it's cracked up to be.....

    You're right. I'd love to go and work in NZ but not sure if it'll be possible, my earnings are completely rubbish.

    Keren,
    (((((hugs))))))
    I feel very selfish now...
    Would you like to borrow my children on weekends ever? They are very well behaved and have excellent manners and love to eat...
