This is the first time we've been to New Plymouth where we've spent any real time rather than just driving right through it.

So far we really like it. Small city Aotearoa is bloody great

Might have changed my mind about New Plymouth, just had to prepay for fuel for the first time in my life

This hotel we are staying in has a king size bed. I'm not a fan

It's so huge, the wife is so far away. I stick a leg out or an arm over for whatever reason it is you do that and cannot reach her. We may as well be in separate beds she's so far over there.

I'm possibly not fit enough for all the skooching over that needs to be done all the time
