Name:
Location: Inverness, Scotland

I'm a Brit/Yank who has now settling back in Scotland with wife Tracy after living in New Zealand and traveling in Australia for a couple of years. Having contributed random thoughts on life in the Antipodes I now blog some impressions of returning to my native Scotland after 22 years away, and also document my marathon training to keep myself motivated. I post pictures at www.timcooke.com which also help to tell the story of our travels.

Introductory Stuff

Wanganui is an attractive small town with a real town center, a pleasant range of parks and excellent sports facilities. It is sited on the Whanganui River with views of the two highest peaks on the North Island (Ruapahu to the north, Taranaki to the west) and the South Island on a clear day. And so far we've had virtually nothing but clear days. Read more about it here: http://www.wanganui.com/ and here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wanganui#Wanganui_City.

Tracy's job is not difficult, though doing urgent care is a lot different that what she's used to (lots of x-rays and getting foreign objects out of eyes so far). Tim was only here 29 hours before he got the first call from a dentist needing his services so he should be all set when his dental licence comes through.
