My dad was born in Melbourne, and left Oz to live in NZ, he passed away a few years ago and is buried in our home town, funny how things turn around, I come from a family of 14 and half of us are now living in Oz, yesterday I visited the Springvale cemetry to find my Ozzie grandparents sites, not a lot of info but will keep trying .... however make no mistake I barrack for the All Blacks !!!!! then again I barrack for the ozzies when they are not playing the kiwis (particularly the poms is that wrong?) for me Oz is the best country in the world but NZ is home  ;)
