Thank you, Ian. It is a real pleasure to live my life the way that I do it, and also a pleasure to tell the stories that may appeal to people who don't have the same opportunities as me. Hope you are well

Pretty envious of you and great that your new lifestyle is a pleasure. A big thing to do in your latter years so keep on keeping on

Great work Ron. Thoroughly enjoying your travelogues from the comfort of my armchair. I would have acknowledged your work earlier but couldn’t until now figure out how to comment. Keep up the good work. Regards. Ian

Woah! 5 Brough superiors!

Were there Hendersons & Clevedon motorcycles? It's a real treat to see those.

Thanks for sharing, Mate

I really enjoy reading your travel blog, I think Invercargill is steeped in history, and the three places you visited are always very poplar for all travellers, certainly added to my list, happy travels Ron.

Thx Leanne. It means a lot to get feedback, makes the effort worth it. Just on my way to Manapouri where I will stay at least 4 - 5 days. I hope to explore widely and write about it. Cheers

Well done! I wondered if there was a Burt museum there, or if his life was absorbed into a larger collection
