    Just found out that I’ve been shortlisted again for a job interview, this time where @LynnG lives. Interview is next Thursday afternoon - I’m the first interview out of 12 people over Thursday and Friday. I’m making it a wee bit of a holiday too so will be there from Wed early afternoon to Saturday mid afternoon. Looking forward to a break as well which I haven’t had in years and the bonus is it wasn’t super expensive to book considering I’m less than 5 days away from going.

    How exciting! Hope you make it into a fun little holiday as well (and hope the weather improves for when you are here!) It's been so cold :groanI am sure you'll find plenty to do (the Great War Exhibition is pretty cool BTW) and if you fancy a coffee let me know :-)

    So far the plan is Wed- Fly down around lunch time and get settled Thurs - Interview in the early afternoon, Friday - explore a few neighbourhoods for renting (bit hard to look at places online if you don’t know the neighbourhood. There was a great unit that I loved and could afford but was 1.5km away from any buses or trains or anything really) & Saturday til about 3pm I want to do Te Papa before I fly out at 4.45

    Happy to give you ideas on neighbourhoods... and, yes, 1.4kms a bit miserable to walk in a Wellington southerly at the end of the day!
