We came from Christchurch in the South Island of New Zealand / Aotearoa (meaning ‘Land of the Long White Cloud’) and we are now living in Milton New Zealand map with Christchurch

Keynes, UK. Christchurch lies on the east coast between the sandy beaches of Sumner and Brighton, the bays and bush clad valleys of Banks Peninsular and the river-braided patchwork of the Canterbury Plains, which stretch westwards towards the tallest mountains in New Zealand, the Southern Alps. Lord of the Rings country!

Milton Keynes where we now live is a "New" town about 60 miles north of London just off the M1 motorway. Milton Keynes is the name of one of the villages that were in the original designated area of the new "city" of Milton Keynes. This had the name Mideltone (middletown) in the Domesday Book and by 1422 the name of Kaynes had been added after the feudal family name Cahaignes.

Kath works for a company based in Milton Keynes that works with the Hospitalty Industry, installing and maintaining Front of house ordering, tills, cabling, Back Office systems and is a Administrator looking after the Installers amongst many other duties.

Pete has been with a Computer company that refurbishes and re-sells ex-lease IT Equipment, processes the same for Leasing companies and re-cycles that which is no longer of any use. His title is "Client Services Manager" and looks after the Leasing customers as well as everything else.

A home has to have a Cat and Marshall Douglas has taken over. He's a Cat's Protection puss who didn't have a home but now as far he is concerned we are his slaves and are there to do his bidding. White with Black Spots and an attitude, he has taken over the neighbourhood, beating up the other cats and being a right bully. But still he is a character and shows affection (or is that a "feed me" message) See photos in his section.
