Scenic postcards with photos of ice cream, lollies, cold drinks. Mmm. Nice. Forget mountains and lakes. That's how I read it. smiley - rofl.

Nobody seemed to mention it or do my eyes deceive me, but that sign says 100 km on the left. Now that's what I call an early warning.

Yep, that's an hour at permitted maximum speed so it's plenty of time to decide how genuine the sign is... on that l-o-n-g empty road down towards Queenstown and Fiordland.
Mind you, the place might have closed in-between times, through lack of custom...

Could very well be. A friend sent me (as a joke I hope) a double CD called 'Kiwis by request'; containing NZ classics such as

Love in a Fowlhouse
Sticky Beak the Kiwi
When my Wahini does the Poi. (Don't ask)
My Old Man's an All Black
and----- Get a Haircut

It is useful for clearing a room when the party guests appear reluctant to leave.

Why thank you, pebbles, for reminding me of those. I must revisit them... remind me again, er,

later, eh?
