I'm in the southern most part of the world. In Invercargill New Zealand. I live with my husband Milton, our two boys Alexander (22 September 2004) and Mason (21 November 2006) and our daughter Ruby (18 April 2008). We also have four burmese cats, Rastus, Morte, Ophelia and Loki. And we have a fish called Newton (and Gary the snail)
I have also just started playing tag in the New Zealand/Australia forum.
