>Terry, FYI the company had a house in Exeter for quite a while... I guess that's "South Coast". I lived there almost half the year in ?2001...

Exeter we'd say is in the SW, out on the Devon/Cornwall peninsula. I live nearer the SE corner, below London, on the Channel.

>Yes, NZ is a country of contrasts. I choose to live here for a number of reasons. But next year I'll be coming back in your direction to set up home again for a year or 5. I think I'm qualified to say that while Brits are very good at identifying the shortcomings of Old Blighty, sometimes I wonder whether you see all the positives, which are many.

Sure. Here we're surrounded by stunning undulating chalk "downs", (a hobbit would feel at home here), some of them tall enough to be termed "mounts", and the most forested area of England, with the chopped-off white cliffs, castles, Battle of Hastings. And of course Brighton is a very vibrant city, with bucket-loads of culture.
