I'd love to go to New Zealand. But don't they have heaty problems too? Plus the whole ozone issue? Where's chilly, and not too populated?

Only!

I'm going to take my weather interest to a new thread at some point, so I can find like-minded weathergeeks without alienating people in these threads.

There may be a little difference with north/south but where I am the average high in summer is barely 20...
That considered, looks like Wellington is for you!

if, whilst there, one hears 'would you like to go to bid with me' get your coat, they ain't talkin' bout no auction ;) knew a maori girl once, but she was of the cameron clan.. another odd combination.

People I know who have had holidays there tell me it's like visiting a 1970's time-warp; just slightly backward and country-like, but in the nicest homely way.
Plus there's all the glorious space and amazing scenery.

I think the Lord of the Rings film is enough of an advertisement for the place.
(probably still a few Hobbitses knocking around too)
