If a tree blocks the road a local uses' it for firewood they don't phone the council down here. I really like the move south.

Having just returned from a months holiday on the coast I can vouch that Hoki has a lot more going for it than just better weather than Rotorua

Is it any wonder?
How many countries our size have two state funded weather services? Met Service and Niwa.
I personally use neither, multiple quality weather forecasting options out there.

If anyone knows old mate Seymour, perhaps a word in his ear.
Give one the chop, or at least amalgamate them and save our tax dollars…
