More freedom camping

The latest knee-jerk reaction from the gubbmint about freedom camping just goes to prove that those that deign to know whats best, know jackshit about what goes on with the real people. All of them are far too focused on ways to continue rorting the taxpayer so they can keep their snouts in the trough [...]

Campervan attack

It was sad to hear of that couple that were attacked in their campervan. It must have been very frightening for the middle aged man and his 23 year old chinese girlfriend… After reading the articles around the various newspapers and especially hearing, listening to and reading the comments about this atrocity, it seems quite [...]

Carterton birthday bash

Went to a mates 50th in Carterton on the weekend and had some discussions with several freedom campers that attended. One, coincidentally, is related to the owner of the AEC Reliance that was recently posted here (see previous post). A small world. Picked up loads of information about some of the good places to visit, [...]

Fog Lamps and the law

I must be getting a bit long in the tooth…its getting darker earlier, and unfortunately, I am one of them that has to work for the man, so rarely get out of the office before the light fades. One thing I have noticed a lot lately is the number of cars that use their fog [...]

it’s been a while…

So there has been much ado lately about the freedom campers in the land of the great white cloud. Plenty of visitors messing up our bit of greenery. We all know what the problem is, it’s just time to find a solution now. Unfortunately, as it has been through the eons of time, the few [...]

Income tax cut

Does anyone actually believe our great and mighty politicians have anyone’s interests at heart other than their own? The Government has been advised to consider “significant changes” to make New Zillund’s tax system fairer and more effective. Damn straight Finance Minister Bill English and Revenue Minister Peter Dunne have just issued a press statement, saying [...]

Climate Chains

From Global Warming to Climate Change Taxing the air we breathe to reduce carbon emissions, that won’t actually result in any reduction in carbon emissions, because its not about carbon emissions its about controlling the masses and making ridculous amounts of money for the few at the expense of the many. I’ve gone off on [...]

SatNav phones will be illegal

SatNav phones will be illegal – Govt Isn’t this just going a bit far? Here was me thinking the nanny state had been buried at the last election (and cemented with the resignation of Bratford just recently – God help Auckland). Gubbermints shouldn’t get involved in the little things, like you know, making Adventure trips [...]

Petrol price drop

Is it just me being typically cynical or is there something in the fact that these small petrol price drops are an attempt to appease the market in the days / weeks prior to an imminent rise in the price of petrol at the pumps? I hope I’m wrong and we see another drop soon, [...]
