Got 'em right here in Dunedin just past 45* South, in shaded roadside
banks. Who needs to travel hundreds of km to a glow-worm cave?

>Kiwi,

Eat worms.

>  Keas

Eat cars. True!! At least, they'll eat the window & door seals; on
older cars the windshield falls in. Then the Keas eat the interior.
NOT an exurban legend.

I HATE HATE HATE SHEEP. Luscious? Some farmers think so...

>What does an Imperial Gallon of RON 91 cost in Dunedin.

About $1.93US, very approximately. It goes up & down like a schoolboy.

They don't. None here, new or used. The T3 was never sold here. All
present (total est 50) are private imports.

Dunno. I don't eat concentrated fungus juice.

Actually it's not bad spread EXTREMELY thinly on hot buttery toast.
NOT good on Weetabix or in your Sugar Frosted Flakes.
