    Hello from New Zealand

    Gary, hope you and your family/friends are all good and safe given your location in Hawkes Bay. We had a few slips on our property after the Auckland Floods then they got bigger following Cyclone Gabriel. So it might be a good thing the kit is delayed if you have property issues to deal with...

    New Zealand Floods

    My house is high on the property, so wind lashing, rain has washed our lime rock and stones of our road/raceways into the paddocks and one of our bridges on the farm has collapsed and washed into the creek due to increase in volumes of water.

    Frank Wigg - High quality ‘Toolroom’ GT40 replica built in New Zealand

    GAS PRICE CHECK

    So if we do the maths like Ryan Love above and move all the NZ taxes we get. $3:11 - 15% - 70.024 - 6 - 0.66 - 0.6 - 20 - 10 (I am in Auckland) = approx $1:57 NZD a litre so that would be $1.01 USD a litre which is not bad so just the taxes are the killer here and this is after the govt has...
