Hi Mark WINZ and the Customs share information and they know when I depart and when I re-enter and my wife and I have to notify them how long we are out of NZ etc. We notify them religiously and inform them of the reasons etc why we are out of the country and before we leave. Never had a problem. If you want super you must apply before you leave the country and if you are going for an extended period you must satisfy their criteria. Get it sorted and play by their rules or you will be in the terrible situation of being stuck overseas being denied income, to which you are entitled, but you failed to file the paperwork and fulfil the residency requirements. Good luck

had a new Honda HRV done 2 years ago at Honda. I feel it is really worthwhile, keeps looking like new and a shower of rain seems to take all the grime away. Cannot remember the cost but included 4 retouches 6 months apart. Get a lot of salt/sand grime from Patong Beach every day and we use the car every day.

A fair and reasonable government would ensure the compensation claims from the Post Office scandal should be paid out long before any consideration of a claim by this terrorist. British Justice was the paragon standard that the rest of the world aspired to. The lawyers, the consultant lawyers and the executives and investigative staff of the Post Office and Royal Mail has besmirched the reputation of the entire legal system. This is the issue that needs to be finalised now, not some technical issue with a signature.

Just had a look on Google and food looks delicious. Definitely try it in the next few days. Thank you

Those baguettes at Chez Nous are worth the drive down from Patong. We regularly go down and enjoy an afternoon meal, delightful staff. Got caught in the traffic for the King's Regatta at Kata last night on our way down. Took an hour to get through but well worth the wait as we went to Le Celtique and we again shared a deep fried, breaded Goat cheese as an entree and that is an absolute delight. Our main meals were just as excellent. We are so spoilt with great food and restaurants on Phuket with some really nice staff.

Thanks everybody for your help I thought Big C was still opening at 10 or 11am so I will try at 9am I think i can exist till then for the pleasure of a fresh baked baguette. Going to try freezing the half baguettes, ideal with garlic butter smeared on them.

Anyone know of a shop/bakery, in Patong, that has fresh crusty baguettes and is open, say from 8am or earlier? Just love a good baguette and cheese with a morning coffee.

The interview want to see is Hilary Clinton Perhaps a "The View" special for her?

Interesting take, especially the comment of recent migrants retaining immediate contact with their "roots" by internet/phone and not being thrust into the new community as were migrants say 50 years ago.
