Good evening Deigh; My wife and I started to watch an hour long presentation on New Zealand. I believe it is titled Ariel New Zealand. I can never get enough of things like this and will rewatch parts over again to absorb some facts. I am going to have many question I'm sure. The bit I've watched so far has talked about it being 2 separate islands and the hot springs and frying pan lake on the north isle. Which chunk of Terra firma do you call home? Can't wait to watch more. Thanks, Wil

It's a brilliant country to visit, there are so many different views and some good activities for the younger generation. It is also peaceful and previous to the recent Mosque shootings...pretty quiet. Just what I need!
We are North Island, google 'Waiuku;' and you will see it is a pretty uneventful area, We are semi tropical. get no snow but some finger tingling frosts. We get the odd ground shake mid summer which can be fun but rarely events even in an insurance claim.......... and no casualties!
Water plays a big part in our lives here, We have the biggest ratio of boats per person in the world. one person in three is a fisherperson, mainly sea but also a great amount of freshwater fishers for Trout and Salmon. Boats are not registered but mooring fees cans be steep and in many places charges are made for use of landing ramps by owners of towed boats.
The handling of the virus crises here has been excellent, we have it fully under control and are now desperately waiting for the rest of the world to catch up and we can again welcome visitors with money to spend.
Regards
Deigh
