Yes, its true – we’re moving to the suburbs… The big move is happening over Labour Weekend.
We’ve finally had enough of living in a city apartment the size of a shoebox, and are ready for a bit of greenery and a real kitchen. Maybe once we have a kitchen bigger than a ship’s galley, it’ll be easier to get The Boy to cook a bit more often. We’ll definitely be having a few bbq’s in the summer, which should keep my Brazilian Gaucho happy.
So, now we have the super-fun task of packing and planning what needs to come out of storage. Plus what needs to go into storage and what just needs to get chucked. I really hate packing and moving. You’d think it wouldn’t be so hard, considering the size of our current place, but its amazing how much crap we have jammed in there. The Boy is a bit of a hoarder…
I’m not entirely sure how I’m going to go with the whole taking the bus to work thing. That will definitely be a shock to the system. I’ll give it a go, anyway, and see what happens.

If the bus is a terror with you...can you not use the train system? Hasnt it been upgraded into a Britomart wonder? (I live in CHCH..so am not too up-to-date on auckland's transport system).
When you say suburbs, will it be a suburb far from the city?
Congratulations on the new move - i am assuming this is your first property you are buying? Welcome to the club of 'good debt'!
no, unfortunately we're still in the not-so-good debt club! we're not ready to buy just yet - not at Auckland prices!
We're about 15 mins drive from the city with no traffic - I'm not sure about rush hour. We're not near a train station, which is a bugger, because I would prefer the train. I've just been spoiled because I've lived within walking distance of work for over 5 years :o)
