Ah, my parents are in Cairnfield Rd. I was at Kamo HS in the early 70s - yep its NZ so more than likely some overlapping acquaintences. NZ is in good shape pandemic wise - I am waiting for the Transtasman bubble to open up before I can get back to Queensland. A few weeks yet it seems.
Like you I have moved around a bit and now have adult children in various places that mean I get around a bit when air travel permits.
Thank you for the response - take care.

Hi there,
You have responded to the Whangarei and Northland pics over the years quite frequently - is there a chance we know each other when we each lived here in Whangarei?
I am one of the Bartlett family from Whangarei/Northland and my p[arents still live in Kensington - are you familiar with anyone of that name?

Came here in late February to help aged parents prior to lockdown and have got stranded. Good chance to do a bit of tramping...

Where ya been, emailed you a few times around the WC Final but email always bounced back.
