Settling in
So we are now into our second week and it has been no less manic than the first and lots of fun too.Ben started work at Insite last Tuesday after Easter. A week on and he is settling in really well, he comes home talking of manufacturing and systems, lots of similarities with RM PC Div but a few differences too that you get with a different scale. The company has about 25 employees and produces about 5000 units a year. They are growing fast, so no pressure Ben but Jan has high expectations!
We also moved into the house we are renting. Our container arrived without too much incident – one minor row with the removal company at this end as they wanted to charge us more (good try but picked the wrong people to mess with!!) – more importantly, it all got through customs ok and the kids were thrilled to get their toys back, their rooms were the first to get sorted.
I have finally got round to putting up some photos so take a look through the albums or follow the links below:
Our first two weeks – around Christchurch and Lyttelton
Although we are now in or on place, we became good friends with Shonagh and went ice skating with them last weekend. Christy likes his skiing too so when the winter has really set in we’ll probably take to the slopes together too. It was Shonagh’s birthday and Erin and Dave had a party at their place last weekend, the champagne came out and we toasted the new arrivals again (I wonder how long we can keep that one going for ?!)
It has been great get back to being able to talk to people back home again, we are slowly catching up and love hearing from you all. Keep those emails coming.
