funnily enough, i also will be vacating edinb(rough) for a while pretty soon as well as my illustrious flatmates pk and nancy....
i'm off to the lovely climes of NZ for 6 months if the NZ government likes me enough to give me a work visa...
The plan at present is to leave edinburgh in september and arrive in auckland some time in october, having spent a week or three visiting people on the way in london, france and anywhere else my bank balance approves of(small nearby inexpensive places...). then from auckland after 1 week or so i will head outh to a small flat in queenstown to chill for 5 months or so and do interesting fun stuff...
many reasons for this, including plain itchy feet, a long term wish to reside in somewhere described as 'scotland but bigger and warmer'....been in edinburgh for three years and need a change of sceenery.... along with the trials and tribulations of working with your closest friends for 18 months....
what i recommend is that everyone comes to visit me there as you've all been so ****ing slack about getting to edinburgh over the last 18 months.
love y'all

Seeing as I actually did manage to get to Edinburgh during the 18 months that you were there, does that mean that I am exempted from your recommendation to fly to NZ, which would require my selling of a kidney or some other vital organ to get there? Not that I wouldn't want to visit NZ, but I think a life with two kidneys would allow me to do a lot more.
At any rate, best of luck with that, man. Hope it all works out.

i'll be in nz but i'm gonna miss ya by about a year
it could be like tag team travelling though we could arrange it so there's always a uk spinner resident in nz...
(and by the way, i think you'll find the correct form of that description is 'england but bigger and warmer' )
see you soon man
