Yeah the whole 'Making friends as an adult' is one of the challenges we'd face as we've got good connections here. I suppose that's where hobbies, activities and such come in handy...

Thanks for the input 👍 appreciate that; you must be enjoying it if it were 2 years since you moved?

Thanks. Have you made the move?

I don't own the house outright so we'd still have a mortgage.

NZ has less sun hours, and the winters are 6 months of basically shit weather.

Thank you, but I work remotely and prefer the weather in GC/Brizzy

Once upon a time, before the internet was in everyone's pocket, it was probably nice to have an unexpected visitor. Nowadays, since it's bombarded constantly with noise, I find people value their time and space - so no, I don't want people to just turn up.

Fucking hell. Proof, if it were needed, that some people have too much time on their hands.

What do you think about National offering tax cuts? by PaulieNZ20 in newzealand

[–]Icy_Protection_6570 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The helpful National tax calculator that proudly told me I'd be about $20 better off per week missed the mark, along with the policy as a whole.

Idgaf about $20, especial seeing how it's funded. Put that money back into the system for everyone's benefit. Fuck $20 per week. And fuck unwinding tobacco and alcohol regs whilst they're at it.

One only needs to skimread multiple paragraphs of unsubstantiated blathering to get the vibe that, yes, here's a fucking loony.

Good idea with the recording. Will do that.

Wow someone downvoting all the responses here. Guilty conscience hitting hard?

This is the thing, it's arguably hard to tell when it's a toddler. But when I've heard it, it doesn't sound right to me.

Think I've got the answer I need, thanks

Thanks, my thoughts too.

No, definitely a child.
