1169528 2011-01-13 09:02:00 Is it that boring here, I even googled if Wellington is boring and organisation's have pinned Wellington just that :p

I do a fair amount of travel.

Is Wellington or NZ really that boring is that in aligned with many British related places. Wellington is a arts place, more a domestic tourism market than a place for international tourists. It has a good cafe lifestyle, food and wine but pick any day of the week if you are not eating or drinking what is there to do here :confused:

Go to any of the suburbs and it's dead apart from petrol stations and fast food restaurants which some are now opening 24hrs. Go into the CBD and Lambton Quay is desserted and the only place open is Courtenay Place for the same drinks and food and dance.

Maybe that food here cost a fair bit and they don't eat out that much while in the "EAST" overseas eating out becomes a daily event. Perhaps booze is one of the things to do since it's so boring here. Well there are others, play board games, computer games and jigsaw puzzles and card games, watch tv and call it a night :lol:

In terms of photography I still shoot transparency film, I process them abroad which the postal price is quoted for 6 rolls, I might just send away 5 rolls (with my Christmas trip) because there is just not much to photograph here to have any sense of quality. Given that film is not free, I cannot shoot it like digital and store the crap shots on my hard drive and not to be seen again.

We do have Sky. and Those are actually the only 2 Channels i watch.

I tape Whose Line Is It Anyway UK off Comedy Central.

And i've been taping uk cop drama "The Bill" which is showing old episodes from 1996 before it went down the toilet.

The only other channel i watch is Channel 5 "The Box" (formerly Sky1) due to them showing re runs of The Drew Carey Show.
