    it has been the coldest all year over the last few days, and colder than a moth in laws kiss in some parts of the rapa,

    Just to be a pedant, a meter measures, like what tells you how fast you are going. It' is not a measurement of distance.
    Unless you are American. But they don't use the metric system so are hardly a reliable source of information.

    Actually that rule applies for most scenarios.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    After I picked up the new bike in Dunedin I decided to have a peek at Danseys Pass. The "gutters" at the side of the road were all solid Ice. And the shady spots as you describe. I had hoped for a break at the Hotel but it was closed,only opens at 3pm
