Notes on Aotearoa
... shoot something, or fix the neighbours fence in return for half a sheep etc.
Other whinging POM observations....
*Supermarkets are boring. Just food, not much else and no real offers. Also quite expensive.
*WEATHER IS BETTER. Ok, quite hot in summer. So hot in fact, that uncomfortably so in height of summer. Winter? Pah. Nowhere close. Winter is cold and dry in the mornings with beautiful blue skies. The. The sun comes out, the frost goes and everyone ...
