Thought there was a 2 year wait for the dole over there?

^^^ You could be right - they may have changed the rules.

When were you here? If you aren't fussy, you can get a job easily enough here but I don't know about the other cities.

Ahahaha Dunedin. My parents just moved down there. It's expensive now and cold and wet and windy. Auckland is cheaper for clothes, etc.

My day was fantastic, I caught up with two old friends and am going to finish a cruisy day with Close Encounters of the Third Kind. What would I do if there were no Sci Fi? :bowdown:

I'm super tired though, knowing me I will pass out during the movie. It's a sign of me getting old lol.
