I quite like Hull - nice old town area - real ale pubs - plenty of charm.

It's 'gutterfax' under another name, which might make a lot of sense. |

| Quote: Dead Man Walking "How come you think that London should be promoted back to its "rightful" place in Super League ? Does London have more of a right to be in Super League than other teams ?'"
Yes it does have the right. London is the capital of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It must be represented in Super League if rugby league is to be taken seriously in the UK, let alone overseas.
Also, let us not forget that London has produced stars like Daniel Sarginson, Louis McCarthy-Scarsbrook, Anthony Clubb, Kieran Dixon, Mason Caton-Brown, Michael Channing, etc. The list goes on. |

Wrong on both counts there son.
I wish I were paying 1980s prices but not even close. You can't buy a house where I live for under £250k! Food, drink, flights, transport and most other things are all considerably more expensive than back in the UK. I've been here for 10 years and return to England pretty frequently to visit friend & family so I really notice the difference. Money goes a lot further back home without a shadow of a doubt.
If you think that NZ is one of the dullest places on earth then you've clearly never been here. It's anything but mate.

It was great when I first arrived and the exchange rate was over $3 to the pound (nothing near close to that now). Reality sets in when you start earning the Kiwi dollar lol.
It's a great place to live, there's always something to do and I love how crime is rarely much of a problem down here. It took me a few years to settle in though. I lived in a few different places around the North & South Island before finally settling in Queenstown. I came pretty close to moving back home myself in 2007 but decided to stick it out and thankfully things seem to have worked out well. |

Given how many of the tippos go travelling, the fact that 4.5 million people are happy to live there suggests it can't be that bad.

My son and his g/f did a big world tour last year. They cut short time in Australia to spend extra time in NZ, which they thought was fantastic. If I remember right they spent quite some time in Queenstown.

Listen to the little slip he makes on 6 minutes...
Ha ha
He was Wigan bound as soon as he quit New Zealand. So whether or not he "slipped up" in a radio interview is irrelevant.
