niterider Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 Packing some clothes last night left me wanting to ask here... to Wayne and Noli, have the wives found some nice places to shop for clothes....work stuff in particular - I need (not want). Loads of shopping down Queen Street. Or closer to home, there's some options at Sylvia Park, or Dressmart in Onehunga (an outlet mall).

Hayley, there are some decent shops (Sylvia Park has lots) and you will recognize some of the brands (Cotton On etc), but pricing is anywhere between 150-300% compared to SA.Meg only starts work in July but we just got word that our container has not even left JHB yet which means most of her work clothes won't get here in time. Maybe she will have to take you shopping. ????

Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Just a warning....I am not BIG on shopping, but I would really need to go. And maybe tips from lady ladies will be good for a change (because I dont really fall in that category) and your wife always looks beautiful (she is going to judge my lack of style and hate for make up I just know...hahaha)

Most of our shopping takes place at Kathmandu and Macpac. They are camping stores. Outdoor gear doesnt need ironing and dries pretty quick. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk hayleyearth 1

patches Posted May 12, 2016 Posted May 12, 2016 (edited) How was your little rumble last night? Oh yeah! that was a goodie! First one I've felt since being here! I was in bed watching series. It felt like airplane turbulence for about 5 seconds. I jumped onto Geonet straight away. 4.7 on the scale.

I try make a habit of not stopping to pick up 14yr old girls, hahaha! Plus German cars in NZ are what French cars are to SA. No one wants to steal them because they can't afford to fix them, hahaha!
