New Zealand, a new start?

I am at a crossroads in my life, I am divorced (again), I have problems at work, my daughter has grown up, and I am feeling as though I need a change in my life.

I have been toying with the idea of moving to New Zealand after talking to a friend at college when I was doing a part time course. He also was thinking of going to New Zealand and was surfing the Internet on websites that were showing houses in New Zealand, they appeared to be cheaper than in the UK and were a lot nicer than the average house.

I have spent lots of hours on the Internet myself, looking on websites about and in New Zealand, and I am pretty amazed at the opportunities available in this country.
The site for looking at immigrating to New Zealand was the obvious one really, called Immigration New Zealand, http://www.immigration.govt.nz/migrant/default.htm ,and the best place to start as it is run by the New Zealand government.
