The Fords in New Zealand

We are Chris, Vanessa, Shannon and Alex Ford. We decided some time ago that we wanted to live in a country where the main emphasis was on family and free time rather than the 'live to work' ethos of the UK. We chose New Zealand for this, and many other many reasons. After months of research we decided to settle in the Christchurch area. Our journey begins!

Thanks

Thanks for you emails, phone calls, gestures of support and thoughts.

The act of putting the house on the market enabled me to climb out of the pit of despair. It gave me an objective to prepare the house and garden, and a lot of work to get stuck into. It cleared my head of all the negative thoughts that had been building for weeks, and enabled me to think straight again. Making a decision and acting on it was the right thing to do, even if we do review that decision later.

This period, and the possibility of returning, has also brought home how dearly each of us value our friends and our family. We miss you, you know.
