Friday 1st, Day 4.

Checked out of hotel, leaving behind a nuclear war of tour terrorism in the form of colgate door handles and late night Sionny bach y knocker. Asked everyone 3 times if they'd checked their rooms and then produced 7 cds, tour book, t shirt and a swimming kit which had been left on a heater and almost burnt the hotel down all from the same room. Charred black it was still smoking when the maid gave it to me. 21 bum salute for Rhys the kiwis' carer/sister Jo who was leaving the tour.visited a vineyard and had food at the oldest pub in NZ. the Greytown (burgers again). Good couple of hours there and by the time we left the whole pub turned out to wave us off. Traveled onto Scotts College in Wellington, a boarding school where we were staying. It was a way out of town but we were lucky to get it as there were no hotel beds for miles. School meals for couple of days and some of Gappas mates from Hamilton came down to watch the test. No doors to rooms just curtains. Former All Black Dave Loveridge come along for food as well but didn't say much. Had quietish night at local bar rather than going into city center. Couple of boys fell asleep in the pub (NO NOT ME!) Snoring very impressive throughout block.
