If you want a coffee after 3PM try a pub. Many of them offer decent coffee now.
Great point, Ron! Thanks for sharing and have a lovely weekend! 😊
I know it's Sunday and all
But have a gander at the rally
It's a great kiwi sport ....I could write a novel on the differences between rally & NASCAR...and all blacks against the Steelers
I could go on for days
Bluff near Invercargill on the South Island is 4825 kilometres from the South Pole
Paris, France is 4576 kilometres from the North. Pole
There are no land masses between nz and the south pole.
That means our weather can be directly influenced by systems from the far south.
Thank you for being with and for sharing, Christopher! Have a great weekend 😊
Your garden is lovely against the cloudy blue sky. I can imagine how terrible it is caught in an ocean rip.
Glad that you like it, Robert, thank you. It is a pleasure to be able to sit outdoors and chat to you! Have a great week 😊
Loving your beautiful garden.
Thanks so much, Angie 🥰
You two have me in stitches today😂. “ the whole of the South Island moved east, closer to Australia” umm…. Australia is to our west. Great job you two, keep up the good work.
P.S. Argentina is the closest county to Antartica, and is where you would board a cruise ship to Antartica, however Christchurch airport is used to fly out to Scott base.
So glad you enjoyed our in-depth and very-grown-up-and-factual show 🤣 Thank you so much for being with us and for saying hi! (Can't wait to tell Bri the Argentina bit, thank you!)
Not near the south pole.. its 4800km away
If you get caught in a rip tide once past the breakers roll onto you back (saves energy) and kicking ya legs make your way at a 45 degree angle across the Rip this enables you to escape the Rip😮😅 and not tire you out. If you fight the Rip depending on your strength you have between 15 to 45 seconds before you are so tired you can,t stay a float and you drown😅. Hope that's helpful😂.
Giggled and cried all the way through 😢.
God I love ❤️ you guys.
❤ to mum ..... stay safe.
Thank you, Mark! It’s always reassuring to know you are with us and we are making you smile. Lots of love, Liz and Bri ❤️
I'm gonna write a novel on how to translate Liz & Bri
Cuz u flutter between very British terms & kiwi
I love it u sound like my grandparents....they lived in Kent
Grandad John was actually a pilot in WW2....and that's how he made his bob to buy the nursery in Kent, UK
That would be perfect! Thank you for always being with us, we appreciate you and your lovely comments! 😄
You guys always make us laugh, so much fun! The heat under the sun here is no joke! How expensive is New Zealand, is, an interesting question - our answer is yes, with a huge but - you spend less money on things you realize you don't need and you enjoy the nature over needing to pay to be entertained! This was a great topic for a video, well done.
Thank you, Randy and Suze, we are so glad you enjoyed it and yes, agreed! There are so many free things to do here it kind of balances out like you say. Love you guys! 🥰 Liz and Bri x
There's no point comparing cost of countries. Its all about lifestyle n comfort
Exactly, well said! @@gissyb1
It's soooooo funny......kinda like Liz..a'e Bri (
Kinda goes on a bit)
* Bri has half an openuen too😅😅😅🎉🎉
Yeah u gotta watch out for the rifts
I got caught on one once ...it's scary...it's mother nature....ur right...rip ties in Aotearoa are no joke....!!!!!
Good thing uve got ur Whitaker's!!❤🎉🎉
Although the sun is stronger in Australia being closer to the equator the UV Light (Causes Sunburn) is stronger in NZ so you'll get sunburnt easier
Thank you for sharing, Bri learned the hard way! 🥹
Is the UK near the north pole, well it's closer than Aotearoa New Zealand is to the sth pole.
Soooo funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hamm...intersting questions.🤔 Looove your vlog beautiful couple. You both are sooo funny. ❤️ Your garden behaind you is just incredible. You did good job wt planting these beautiful plants.🥰. Lots of love❤️
Thank you so much, Renata, I am loving my garden right now…lots of beautiful smells and soft colours ❤️ 😊
I find real food, like meat, butter and cream are great here and good quality. I tried to buy steak, butter and cream in England, Portugal and Germany last year and you couldn't buy anything comparable apart from clotted cream and French butter.
Thanks for sharing, Ivy! I hope you found a decent scone at least to slather that cream onto??! Have a lovely weekend our friend 🥰
Nah, just tried a scone at an historic house and it was awful. I just put the cream in my coffee. Clotted cream is to die for. Tried to buy some back here.
it’s gotten expensive, I call New Zealand the Norway of the South Pacific
I was talking to an American who was divorced but his children were here with him. His ex-wife was coming for a visit and he was booking her into a motel. She asked him if they had 'proper toilets' in NZ!
I have been here 50 yrs so when NZ farmers received lots of subsidies. Milk was 2c, bread 4c, butter about the same.
Apart from 8 yrs in Napier/Hastings have lived in Christchurch including through the earthquakes. Still love it but not sure I could cope with another quake
Had a giggle at this, Anne! 🚽🚽🤣Thanks for sharing!
I agree with Brian - its closer but not close.
Thanks for joining us, Ray! Have a lovely weekend! 😀
Argentina is closer I think?
Ur right bri'...u can't park anywhere in America for free 😢
NZ should be compared to the Scandinavian county's in cost of living .
We are one of the most free most liberal country's in the world.
That freedom has a cost.
Because we are in a very remote location with a small population we have little pollution. add the Ozone hole over the southern regions it means our sun light is very intense. Not hot but the sun can burn you even in a cloudy day in winter.
NZ recirculated tap water is often cleaner than bottled water you can buy. Brian is right tank water safety depends on how much effort is placed on keeping it pure.
Often kiwis do not know how lucky we are to live in "godzone " a paradise in the remote south pacific,
I think you two have worked it out I know I have.
Thank you for being with us and for sharing your thoughts, Martin! We appreciate you. Have a great weekend (and yes...we worked it out about 14 1/2 years ago 😂!)
Strictly speaking there is and never has been an ozone “hole” as one generally understands it like a donut hole. It’s something scientists coined originally to convey in an effective way, their warnings over climate change effects to convince the general populace and politicians etc to take it seriously, shown graphically in the ozone depletion areas, mainly the Antarctic. Quite startling then. A great way to illustrate it as a hole that has simply stuck and became a worldwide catchcry and now become part of everyday belief and common misunderstanding. There is however parts of the ozone where it’s Less Dense, esp over Antarctica. This is what is really understood as the “hole”. It’s not a blanket thickness all over. The ozone has also recovered considerably since cfcs were banned so the publicity the saying got worked to some extent. Pollution or more the lack of it over NZ also contributes to less particles in the air, again letting more light through. This ends today’s lesson, lol.

Bri
Wouldn't u love
To have a go at this!!!!!
Hello from Estonia! Thank you for mentioning :)
Our pleasure, Raiku! Thank YOU for being with us! 🇪🇪😍
Argentina is much closer to the South Pole than New Zealand.

Wellington water is great.

Thank you for sharing and for being with us! We appreciate your comment 😃
NZ is not floating Mrs Drama, its merely the part of the continent above sea level... ..... :)

It will be so much fun 🎉
This is honestly how 🥝 kiwis drive

Thanks for sharing and for being with us! Have a lovely weekend! and love to all in Colorado 🇺🇸 😊
Lots of rural people will ask you if you want a drink and then get you a bottle of water from the fridge. Some regional cities have chlorinated because their filtration systems are not up to spec anymore. Water quality is 'there', but if you expect top quality filtered, chlorinated and fluoridated water like in big cities, you will be disappointed. The further from the big cities you are, the lower the chance of fluoride in the water. You have to go to the dentist to catch issues early... and dentists are in short supply.
Some people do not have access to a dentist in NZ. If you are planning to move here, don't become one of those people.
Great points. Thank you for sharing and for being with us, we appreciate you! Have a lovely weekend 😊
“Just ask when you last cleaned your backflow”, it sounds as if you’re asking when was the last time you had a colonic 😂
Well I didn't want to just come out and say it...🤣🚽🚽
Oe'
All jokes aside....
I remember watching this on the telli in maragangi Bay North shore Auckland right before I came to America
Loved listening to these burning questions about NZ .😅 It's always fun listening to your discussions on this kind of stuff. Our water used to be nicer to drink before they recently added the Chlorine. Now mostly tastes and smells like swimming pool water but I guess it could be worse. 🙁
Lovely to have you with us, Susan! Thank you as always for being with us in our garden! 🥰
This is so funny 😂😂😂
This reminds me of bri😅😅😅😂
Glad you enjoyed the episode! 😊
Australia isn’t as cheap as it used to be, just like New Zealand
Overesely not on subject.....but who is 😂😂😂😂
I do also believe there is a documentary on Gaia about when the shift of the southern textonic plates Aotearoa will be the biggest land mass on the blue 🔵 pearl
Dried crickets our new food according to Klaus schwab
So much hotter here in Australia,41 here in Perth,42 tomorrow, the sun back home is harsher on the skin though,very low burn time. Might be worrth doing some research on sunscreen my friends, it has ingredients that can be harmful. We have Vitamin D in our skins, covering it in sunscreen, doesn't help.
Thanks for sharing, Andy. 42 in Perth?? WOW!! Stay hydrated my friend! 😊😎😎🇦🇺🇦🇺
Yeah I suffered under that 40c odd heat in Perth for a few years there. White euro male. Couldn’t go outside for most of the day in those temps. Good locals tip was to wet the top sheet so we could sleep at night. We often went to the mall to get away from the heat as they are air cond of course and I was amazed at how many old people spent their days there to keep cool too. Saves plenty on the power bill I guess.
NZ heat is much hotter thsn oz
We live in rural New Zealand, have tank water to our house, filtered twice, once through uv light, the BnB also is fed this way. Water is awesome, everyone loves the quality and clarity and it’s safe. To be fair, I still drink from the tap at work in town as it’s safe and clean and Aucklands tap water is fine too but there it’s treated and cleared of any potential nasties.
Water in Perth Australia though, was rather discolored when we lived there, so sadly bottled water was the way to go. Bore water tainted buildings and houses in the suburbs when sprayed to keep the homeowners lawns alive. I believe because of water shortages there now that bores aren’t allowed like they were and they have salt water desalinated to provide or supplement their drinking water.
Thank you for sharing this great comment! We appreciate you taking the time to do so! Have a great week and thank you again for joining us 😊

Not nothing for nothing
I feel i found
Tess over taking in the fancy green mini!!!?
It’s quiet in New Zealand. Take a nice trip to the bush and set up camp and then the bloody birds start. Not quiet.
The Northernmost part of the UK is 1,346 km closer to the North Pole than the Southernmost part of New Zealand is to the South Pole. The closest populated land mass to the South Pole is the Southern tip of Argentina.
Thank you for sharing! 😀
penguins are in the southern hemisphere NOT the south pole
Loved this Liz and Brian. you make me smile 😊xx
Glad you enjoyed it, Les! How lovely to have you with us xx 🥰 All our love, Lizzie and Brian
Lovely black sand around New Plym - warm sand for bare-foot walking at midnight. But NZ has beautiful white sand beaches as well (e.g. Anchorage in Golden Bay - close to Motueka)
Absolutely! Thank you for joining us and for saying hi! 😃
Ill drive
Just be co-pilote
Have a gander
Just a little
Tiki tour
My mum would say that to me all the Time.... when I compare bollocks from Auckland to Welly
My mum lived in - karior
How close is NZ to Antarctica? Five to seven hours by air. Up to five days by sea. So, no, NZ is not close to Antarctica.
Got it! Thanks for sharing! 😊
Hi, is it NZ weather better than the UK?
Bri told me to write this: "We get the same rainfall here in NZ but twice the sunshine!" Me? I would say 1000% better weather! Thanks for watching Karen 😊
Hello from Czech Republic
Hellllooo Czech Republic! Thank you so much for joining us! 🇨🇿🇨🇿😃
I know that NZ gave provision for two Maori representatives in Parliament from (I think) about 1860 (I'm probably wrong about the date, but it was really early). I think that's pretty cool compared to how most indigenous populations are treated (could always be better). ❤
Hi, Trudi! Thank you as always for joining us and for saying helloi! 😃
I did an electrolyzer test on the tap water and bottled water in Perth,the water comes out Black and Green, the bottled water comes out dark green ,needless to say,I only drink Alkaline water now,it came out the cleanest. Fiji water and Voss,came out the worst,pure spring water doesn't mean it's pure. None of the spring water bottles I tested,came out pure,far from it.
Thanks for sharing, Andy 😊
OMG.....u guys are awesome funny 🤣🤣😂😂
So glad that we can make you giggle before the weekend starts! Always a win-win!! Thank you for joining us 😍
What's the tearm....oh...
" It's tit for tot"

Mowdy is a kiwi languidge. Engalish Eyerish, Scotis and Welshers and specific islanders make up the rest.....
