Hi I have a pub in Ward, Marlborough. My wife Amy runs the pub while I do a bit of security work off shore. Life is pretty good, We have 3 children and plenty to do. Meet up with a lot of old clubbies and its good to talk BS about who had the hardest times. No one did. It was the best start to life I think that a young fellow could get in NZ. Jim@mcm.co.nz
