Occasionally an article gets printed that is interesting and not all negative. This one makes me think about moving to Nelson or thereabouts for a while in the summer months.

It was a great write up...but lacked a few major facts.
Like Nelson has the highest amount of motorcycle rentals in NZ...and it shows in the ACC crash stats! -but its not the locals that are screwing up the stats, its the bloody tourists!.
.....And the fact that most Ulysses members are complete and utter hoons! lol

I hate the term "Baby Boomers". Largely because it covers at least three generations. Somebody born in 1964 (the official last year for "boomers") has little in common with somebody born in 1948. Indeed the person born in 1948 could be their parent.
