| Date: Monday, November 29, 2004 | We own and run a busy 21 unit Motel in Hamilton, the heart of New Zealand's dairy industry, 140 km south of Auckland.
We have been Motelling for 15 years with Neil having previously served 21 years in the Royal NZ Navy & Margaret having run her own Commercial cleaning business. We have 4 Daughters & 5 grandchildren. Our youngest Daughter is married & has lived in London for the past 4 years. We plan to visit them in August 2005.
Hamilton has recently unveiled a large bronze statue of "Riff Raff", the leading character in the "Rocky Horror Picture Show". The entire play was written by local resident many years ago. It is amazing how well accepted the show is now compared to when it was first released. Our changing times.
Hamilton is the major city for the Waikato province & we are all avid supporters of our Waikato Rugby Team. About 40 minutes drive from Hamilton is a major tourist attraction, "Hobbit Town" from the Movie "Lord Of The Rings". This is proving to be a major tourist attraction drawing many overseas visitors to the site every day
