Yikes! You go away for a couple of days and look what happens to the place.

I am with Russell in defense of Pascale and her malapropisms. The only thing which has been missing from OF is animals. There should have been at least one mongrel (unregistered, of course, and probably a rotweiler cross) and a three-legged cat.
Loretta seemed to lose her love of movies (and movie references) somewhere along the way.

Aaron Spiller has become the most interesting character--a drongo with real heart. The Gooch--well, there is something too oily and ferrety about him. Eric just plain smells.
The Old Man and Ngaire still deserve something particularly unpleasant.

Well, there is Okororie which has a wonderful old country pub (built in the 1880s), a golf course (if you like that kind of thing)--and a walk down an avenue of trees, to the banks of the raging Waihou River where you will find sandy-floored hot pools, surrounded by a high fence and ferns. You get your key to the gate from the hotel.

No problem, Sally. No offence taken. After all, I have been known to make unkind remarks about Masterton.
I don't get to Cambridge often enough--silly old Tirau is our usual stop, heading south (there are some wonderful, little-known hot spring spots around there).
