Funny, when you are heading for strange climes, how folk "in the know" will tell you that "You won't be able to get that there" and so on. Well let me tell you that you can everything here you can in the UK. However, I think I know why "those in the know" get confused. You see the Kiwis have changed all the names of the shops, so for example, Tescos is Woolworths and Woolworths is The Warehouse, Halfords is Repco and B&Q is Bunnings.... You get the drift. Another old wives tale was "you won't get a good curry".... Well you can. In fact we went for our first curry on Thursday and there, right in the middle of the menu was, Chicken Tikka Masala. Not normally one for the ol' chicken Tikka I ordered it and lo and behold, spot on. All washed down with lashings of Kingfisher. Emma had Chiken Dharba, Ju had Lamb and Pea curry. Xanthe had something hot as you can see from Emmas face when she tried it.
