I'm slightly biased by the fact that every time I have to talk to someone in Wellington they are a government employee or they work with government employees. There's a certain way of thinking that tries my patience. I'm guessing you get it around Westminster too.

NB. I always remember now that the only decent shopping in NZ is to be done in Australia :sneaky:
