Hi, I hope you are enjoying your time down under! As a previous correspondent said, the Maori Wars were an interesting part of British history – I hope you get a chance to see some of it. Failing that, there’s a great doco series about it that you can get on DVD. Also, might I recommend Wanaka at Easter time as a place for all history buffs? Looking forward to your next installment, Matt, Christchurch NZ
