It is a beautiful sunny day here today! We live within a few hundred metres of the Pacific which tends to moderate the temperatures somewhat although the winds can get a bit wearisome at times.

I might need advice from you and any other NZ members, John. I've always wanted to visit NZ, and a woman I've known for 40 years wants to go there for a wedding in Aukland on 3 April. Her husband doesn't travel well, and she doesn't want to go 12,000 miles on her own so, being a widower, I volunteered myself as chaperon. No comments, please - there's no physical attraction at all. Plan at present is to land in Christchurch 2 weeks before the wedding, and work our way north, seeing the sights which I am assured by friends who have lived there as ex-pats are five-star spectacular.

But I'm hijacking the thread, so I'll start one of my own when plans firm up.

Gee some of u folks from the North could leave your freezer doors open for warmth.

Its a very pleasant 26 deg C here at the moment. Think I might put some shorts on. Down here minus 1 deg C at any time of year is considered a cold nite. When I lived in the tropical North I used to hear the locals complain when it dropped to a miserable 17 deg C, not to mention put on jumpers. I kid u not.

Mind u last Summer it got to the mid 40s on a few days. The wind was so hot it here it killed some of the plants. Leave a piece of steel outside and u almost need gloves to pick it up.

UK - Summer is that u call it!!! :lol:
