re Bob's your uncle.. (and coming from the english speaking - not american - part of the world i grew up with this statement) I found this interesting and it seems valid.

"Bob's your uncle" means that everything is taken care of for youâyou're all set, you've got it made. The expression apparently dates back to 1887 when the original "Uncle Bob"âBritish Prime Minister Lord Salisburyâmade his nephew (Arthur Balfour) Irish Secretary in a move that reeked of nepotism.

May I inquire as to why you left New Zealand for the US?
