Well, as is usually the case, Nicole beat me to it once again…..
I had a fun time being part of CBC’s Go show, but Nicole has already summed it up.
I meet Jenny (the other “competitor”) when I arrived for the show, and after a brief chat the producer said “That’s the last time you guys are allowed to be nice to each other”. Jenny was a real good sort, and we were given a brief run down of how the show was structured – at which point I was told that there was no way that I would win!
It was a great show and it’s been surprising how many people heard it – Nicole was talking to a consultant in Vancouver who’d heard the show and connected the dots.
So that’s my most recent claim to fame, and maybe immigration heard the show because after initially being told that my work permit was not going to be extended, I then found out yesterday that it is. Does this mean I might become a Yellowlifer? I doubt it, but at least we can save some money before I get deported back to New Zealand!

I’ve spent the last seven years of my life worrying about being deporting from various countries, so I guess I can empathize. Really happy that you’re hanging around Canada a bit longer. Not that it’s any easier to visit you in YK than it is in NZ.
