NZ Expo in manchester this weekend

[lilelvis2000]

Anyone been to one of these. There is one in M'str this weekend. Its a bit steep to get in - like everything else in the UK.

It sounds like one of those scams with a few tourism booths. a few removals booths. one or two Govt booths. One actual employer looking-for-plumbers booths...The employer would only be looking for people with a work-permit in progress and have already sold up and booked their tickets.

Go down and find out if it is a scam. And when you do find out its a scam come back here and say what an excellent event it was and how everyone should get down there ASAP!

All the recently-arrived New Zealanders I know are highly sceptical.

Could be a good money earner though...what with all those poms flocking to leave the country and all that!

well its £10 a head to get in. For that kinda dough one would expect champagne to be served. If it was a proper (ie: government subidised show) would it not be very cheap...if not free?!

unless, of course, you're coleen.
