Hear hear Mike!  My thoughts exactly.  Sure, the NZ market's a dog, the NZ 
currency is turning into monopoly money and the government seems intent on 
turning the screws ever tighter, but hell, when I look out over the 
mountains and breathe that crisp, fresh air I still think I'm damn lucky to 
be a NZer.  We may be better off financially working in London, as one 
embittered individual seems intent of reminding us, but give me the laid 
back NZ lifestyle and environment anytime.  If your life doesn't revolve 
around money or 'things' then it's really not all that bad here.  Have a 
great weekend everyone! :)
