Wellington Hospital? (Me)

The South Island? (My Parents and Grandparents)

Ireland? (Great Grandparents)

That's why we fought for them eh? Because lots of us weren't from there.
Makes enough sense to me.

Exactly!!

If you purchase (not buy) a vehicle you acquire a Rolls Royce as would any other sensible person. Anything less is vulgar!

And remember, if one has to be that boorish as to ask the price, then you obviously can't afford one.

And as everyone should be aware, the Rolls Royce has the best reputation for reliability.

There was the story of an English couple who had problems with their Roller. When they rang the company for help, the company put them in a flash hotel for the night and returned the car the next morning.

They were so impressed with the breakdown service that they wrote a letter to the company expressing their gratitude.

The company wrote a very terse reply advising the couple that a Rolls Royce does not break down - it only "fails to proceed."

Please enlighten us as to what we did for the poms during the Falklands war with Argentina apart from shuffeling a few navy ships to cover areas out of the war zone.

Pom= Prisoner of Mother England, all the prisoners were exported to OZ so technically they are the Poms

Exactly that by sending a ship to Armilla patrol in Gulf so English ship could go to Falklands.
Other than the yanks giving the poms spy sattelite info we were the only country in the world to help them out .
