Hi Bryan:
They are still listed on their website:
R22042
Also still shown in the 2005/2006 Charles Ro Catalog. I would give the boys at Ro a call, 1-800-225-4424 [;)]
Hope that helps: Jeff [8D]

Ian, it's good that you should be awake during your nights worrying about that because it keeps you in sync with those of us across the great waters, and we do prefer to be awake during the daylight hours!

Well mate at least the heat isn't keeping me awake as it does sometime. Being warm is good but not getting below 20 deg C at all for 8 months of the year is a bit tough at times. We have none or very little twilight here. The sun seems to set at nearly the same time every day say 5.30 p tp 6.30 p. But sunup is a different thing 4.30 a to about 6.30 a. another funny thing here for a bout 6 months of the year it gets hotter for several hours after the sun goes down.

That's why we chose it as a penal colony Ian, make 'em suffer and when they think it's going to get cooler, make 'em suffer some more!!

Ed,
New Zealand is an entirely different country than Australia.
We were not settled by convicts, its a tad cooler than aus, ( average temp of 17c) but we dont have snakes, dont have poinous toads, no termites, dont have many nasties at all, only one itsi biti poisonous spider that lives on the coast, no nuke plants, Wher I live there is no smog or acid rain and plenty of fresh air.
Theres only 4 million of us so its not overcrowded and real estate is still realisaticaly priced.
Only thing we dont seem to have is decent train shops and because we are so far away everythings expensive to get here.
Tony.
Have plenty of volanos, some live ones, some proper mountains but not many people so its not overcrowded, lots of land for exploring, no nuclue

Hi Tony I know that new Zealand is another country I read up on it when they offered me the job quite a bit. Only that Aus & NZ are neighbors and share the same hemisphere.
Sounds like I could have made a wrong choice back then but I couldn't talk my wife in to it .
Have since changed wives and would consider it now but I've gotten too darn old
62 now.
