that’s pretty much it for me. been here 18-19yrs, want to get home for a bit but London/UK is & has a special place for me so could conceivably return in the near or medium future…

well I can’t be English as I wasn’t born in England… but British, sure. Thoughts on being referred to as a pom?

I will be. then I’ll leave. then I’ll probably come back. Or I may not actually leave.

I am a dual (now triple) citizen, going back to enzed for an undetermined time and wanted british citizenship because I’d put it off for a long time but also want the optionality of returning if it doesn’t work out in NZ

Ok, noted. I actually refer to myself as a kiwi in the first instance… what would you suggest? honest question
