I've been a Pher for a long time. I remember when it was all fields around here.

Anyway Kia Ora

I've discovered I'm a Kiwi. So with a tongue in cheek, and perhaps not, any advice?

Should I, like Canadians (maple leaf) always have a silver fern / Kiwi badge/something on my luggage to separate me from the Fosters drinking sheep fanciers?

I have to confess, I hate lamb. Tastes like arse. And although I've always had a respect for the Haka, I'm not a rugby fan - can this be injected with my black passport?

I can confirm that I've done the full 'proud Kiwi abroad' and have Steinlager in the fridge (it's actually very good) and have bought this on Ebay... so any advice? wink

Do you wear jandals or gum boots?

My jandles are Reef so I can open bottles.

Don't need gum boots even though I live on the edge of Exmoor.

Do I pass?

Applying for Section 10. My mother was born in Dunedin.

A passport and citizenship was first on the list.

Every Kiwi I've had any dealings with so far has been incredibly polite and helpful.

Grab the opportunity with both hands. We we’re trying to emigrate over there until this all kicked off my wife’s a nurse.

Obviously on the back burner now for the minute.

The thought of having to stay in the UK is not a good one!.
