Hey all: I'll make my rare appearance in the OT forum. I've just accepted a position with a company in New Zealand. It will probably take a couple of months to get my work visa but once that is done, I'll be headed to hobbit-land. I still plan on doing the predictions game while I am there but it may become a even more sporadic in regard to my posting of results/standings. For anyone who has been there, either to visit or for an extended period, any advice? FWIW, the position is in the Auckland area. Gramps...
I once was involved with someone in Auckland when I lived in Portland. I may have taken the prize for long distance relationships, but I don't think that helps you much.
Congratulations! Sounds like a great adventure you are going on. I hope you keep us posted on how it is going and the cool and different things about New Zealand. How long you there for? Don't know anything about New Zealand (on my to do list).
You can scout out expansion territory for Stern. Is there any action hopping in the pastures for bored young rich black guys?
I was told sheep outnumber humans 10-1 and cows 2-1. What kind of action were you wanting "in the pastures" or do I want to know? Gramps...
How dare you! I'm no sheep shagger! I'm a Croweater! GrandpaBlaze you should PM BlayZa, he's a Kiwi; might even be from Auckland.
I spent a few months in New Zealand once, but that was 30 years ago so it may not be of much help. I loved it there, nicest people in the world, really should go back. barfo
I work with Frank Nobilo from the Golf Channel.He is a native New Zealander. He said Oregon is the only place he's been to that makes him feel like he's home.
