I wonder - did you mean in relation to getting the right supports of AS.

Dunedin is cheap but cold. Christchurch is pleasant - good supports available!! I can recommend some for you if want.

Gold Coast is lovely - I love the climate - I like Noosa. I like Currubim (spelling?) and other towns around that area. Great place. I am planning a holiday there soon.

Auckland is ok but the traffic is @£$@%@£$@%@$$£ .

Plus, if you are from Auckland, everyone outside Auckland calls you a "Jafa". Very annoying.

For single (hetero) women, I hear the waikato region is good: lots of single men.

Well, I'm no expert, but I'd probably have to go with The Shire in answer to the question.

But, if Britain shipped all of their criminals to Australia, wouldn't New Zealand logically be where Australian shipped all of its crazy people? 8O

The southern hemisphere must be a very strange place; water swirls frontwise rather than backwise; mammals have pouches and duckbills; I understand even the stars are different down there... I wonder if the next time the magnetic poles flip, whether we'll start putting the formerly southern hemisphere on the tops of globes. Or do globes in the southern hemisphere already put the south on top?

Good fortune,

I don't care if the poles flip, so long as we don't have to drink warm beer :D

We love it out in Waitakere to the West of Auckland. Near enough to the city if we need, but also close to rainforest and beaches. :D

Typically the best place to live in ANY place of the world is your house, even more so your room.
