Some clarifications. When my sister rang and asked me to go, and I said yes I would, she immediatley rang and changed her hubbies ticket over to me, she had to pay a fee to do that. I think it was well over 100.00. I certainly would not be going to the airport with someones elses ticket. That would be silly. Also last time I went over, a number of years ago now, Every purchase or withdrawal I made, when I got home as well as the amount there was an extra transaction for the exchange rate and charges. Buffy, I am flying into Wellington.

Thats good Marj, now if you cannot get to a large PO why not send me $2000-3000 and I'll get it changed for you here and TRY to get it back to you before you fly out.
Have a great trip, will you be taking Myrtle?

Ok Wombat. Don't forget the exchange rate. I will send you over 3,000. I expect 3,750 back and I want it back well before I fly out. Unfortunatley Myrtle can't go. Sister is not willing to pay her fare too.
