Ernie Becketts Fish and Chips.


So now we are promised tornadoes!!!!
Bus man's Holiday: This is what I seem to be having, mmm, cooking, cleaning,
washing, driving and what does Ben do? nothing. Oh, actually read maps badly.
So the other day he attempted to make the bed. This was because he had ruined it by searching for something. Anyway I passed him the bottom sheet, no probs there, then the second sheet- you know the one you sleep under- this is where the problems started. H
e tucks it in at the bottom, as he did with the first and then said "I don't get it, where does the other end go?" (just to put this in perspective, when he lived at home he always had a sheet and a duvet) lets guess who has made his bed for the last god knows amount of years.
Anyway. We are now on the north island after a good crossing from the south. The weather was shite in Wellington but is ok now after hours driving to Napier. Napier the worlds capital of art deco.
On the way to Napier we got a stone in our window which cracked it, so w
e rang the fools who we hired the van off ((maybe we are the fools) actually BEN DID THIS) and they told us, after Ben arguing, to go to Palmerstone North for a newe windscreen- go to this garrgae and they'll sort you! Nope, they won't as they've never heard of us or the company and they ring them, and argue, and we have to go somewhere else!!! Day 5 of a garage.....
In Wellington we went to their National museum, Te Papa, and it was all about their heritage and where people came from. There is a small video screen that shows a few places in the UK where people have emigrated from and one of them is Laceby! So there is a short video of LAceby, grimsby- the dock tower, victoria mills and then ERNIE BECKETTS FISH AND CHIPS!!!!!! Well there you are- i'm upside down and bombarded by images of Grimsby.

P.S saw a Kiwi today.
