Hi there
I've just arrived in Wellington - two days a go in fact. It's all really new, slightly daunting but very exciting. I've moved here to work for the charity Life Flight - first day is tomorrow!
I've come here to explore, get fit and meet new people. So I was wondering if anyone had any tips or suggestions please...on things to do and see, places to go, ways to meet people or anything really about Wellington.
I like walking and exploring new places - one of the main reasons I came here. But I also like going to gigs and seeing live music. And watching and playing various sports...football, rugby, squash and cricket.
If anyone fancies meeting up for a beer or coffee please get in touch. My email address is gadavies1979@gmail.com.
Cheers
Gareth

It might be you might enjoy reading The Quarryman's Son by Taffy Parry which I published as an eBook on Amazon recently. You will no doubt have a laugh when I reflect on my arrival with thrreepounds ten in my pocket 50 years ago ! Nadolig llawen and if you are at a loose end over Xmas give me a buzz in Plimmerton.

Hi Alwyn
I'm afraid I'm from London...my welsh lineage stopped at my grandfather (who was from Bangor).
Still, I will check out the book and the have spied the Welsh Dragon - which will definitely be frequented soon. Always up for a pint so maybe one in there sometime?
