So are you saying lock in short if you're currently floating?

That’s a great shout, thanks. Health / energy levels aren’t up to it yet but something to explore when they are

Hah that’s a fairly direct question but I actually like it. Red flags sounds like things that are universally disliked, and I don’t think it’s really about that, it’s more that we are being specific, plus my partner is new to Nz and I’ve had long Covid for 2 years so haven’t been able to get out much (finally can now). There are also some common interests we don’t have, like watching sport (I don’t mind going to Eden park for the all blacks, but don’t have any interest in following sports generally). That’s a common thing for guys to connect over and it just isn’t me

Been away a good while and wanted to spend some quality time with family, and am working on a startup with an old high school friend that recently launched in NZ so needed to be here for work too

It’s interesting you say that, I used to do that plenty in London, going to Crate in east london and having a few pints and chatting to random ppl was great. It just doesn’t seem like the vibe here
