    Just like the excellent BX GT Mk1, Campervans can be great fun to drive - an example: the VW T5 LWB drives nicely, and has a nice ride, with comfy captain's seats, along with the 5-cly 130hp. And as Ian said earlier in this entertaining, an Airbnb experience on a working farm can be interesting too!

      Hi - there are quite a few nice small campers that drive similar to cars - in NZ Ian might find a Kia Bongo III or a Kia Pregio - a neat small 'cab-over' camper that is quite good, and fun... (I doubt he'll see many T5 LBW hi-tops in NZ).

    Once upon a time, many decades ago, I used to help milk dairy cows on a small farm in Cornwall. I've never forgotten the rhythm - either of calling the herd in, or of the compressor. or of the suction cups.
    NZ is a wonderful place to visit, as that view at 1:02 shows (and you don't get geckos in Cornwall [or Wales] AFAIK), and I get the impression you could quite happily live there, for all that it's many thousands of miles from 'home'.

    The birds at the end are pukeko, known to Wikipedia as the Australasian swamphen. Despite the fact that they flew over from Australia only about a thousand years ago, they are officially described as "reluctant flyers" and they're certainly untidy; they leave their legs dangling in an uncoordinated way, rather than retracting them neatly like most birds. They hang out on green verges of roads even quite close in to Auckland. They flick their white tailfeathers to keep in contact with each other, so the first you might notice of them is this little flash of white by the roadside. They are not known to attack humans.

    Hope you stopped to see Tane Mahuta and Te Matua Ngahere (the largest Kauri trees in NZ) on your way down SH16!

    Just another great, a bit short, update from you thanks for the down to earth reflection of all things daily which is the main reason I watch all your videos never enough though its been great and it all started with your appreciation of the average and the counter weight of the crowd that only has time for the un-affordable cars which have become the biggest yuppies ever, Thanks for your views and travels you make look New Zealand so much more interesting than many believe it is as it is a great place to be. Cheers.

    Interesting that so many NZ speed limits end in a 5 - 35, 55 etc. I can't recall seeing any UK speed limit signs ending in 5! They probably should, there are many roads I can think of where 50 is too fast, and 40 a bit too slow. Similarly with 40/30, 30/20 etc.

      Those are just advisory signs, but it's an interesting point. Maybe designed to catch the eye more?

      They are advisory signs for approaching corners,you can generally do about 10kms over them quite safely except in wet or icy conditions.

      Interesting stuff, I guess they are the equivalent of the UK "Slow" markings + chevron signs and the speed gives you a better idea of the corner's severity.
