Cooks Beach and Surrounds

After departing the campground at Haehei we looked at the NZMCA App for any other campgrounds that might be close and were also part of the camp saver scheme. We found a couple including the one at Cooks Beach which according to the reviews was a great place to stay. Getting there meant driving past the turn off to Hot Water Beach. I was there back in 2017 with two of my sons but Sarah hadn’t…

Integrated Motorhomes

The fascination of integrated motorhomes The Carthago core competence Even from a distance the individual design of the Carthago Premium-Integrates is fascinating. On the way, the view of the landscape and the traffic thanks to the outstandingly good visibility. Arrived at the destination, the extraordinary feeling of space. There are many reasons why meanwhile more than every sixth integrated motorhome registered in Europe in the price range from 85,000 Euro is a Carthago. Enter the world of integrated premium motorhomes! You will appreciate the generous space of the living area and the perfectly integrated driver’s cabin. Space is true luxury – enjoy it while living, relaxing in front of the TV, in the kitchen or in the separable changing room. And at night, you’ll be welcomed by the conveniently accessible fold-down bed above the front seats or the rear beds with extra-large lying dimensions and particularly pleasant reclining comfort.

Analyzing the Clone Assassin, part 2: YES, HE HAS ORGANIC LEGS

This is a PSA that CX-2 does not have prosthetic legs, but does have a bunch of accessories and very fancy gadgets the other don't that, and he will not stop playing with them.

The Bad Batch is not a Christopher Nolan film requiring intense scrutiny I'm giving it, but I needed art references and then twitter and reddit started posting nonsense screenshots, so pull out your little red strings and pin boards, because we're going full Pepe Silva here. :readmore:

The other assassins must be taking public transit, because neither of them sported an extravagantly modified comm they can't stop fiddling with, programmed to spin their chair around with as much drama as Obi-wan dropping his cloak.

Unlike the other assassins, who are both snipers, CX-2 is using a rangefinder along with his scope when studying Omega and collecting data intelligence, but not in battle with Crosshair.

These scenes are very darkly lit, so here's a better look at CX-2's very unique yet familiar glass-looking rangefinder.

In contrast, CX-1 from season three, a proper minimalist after Cody's heart does not use a rangefinder despite the distance, nor did his predecessor on Coruscant.

And then our mystery clone who can't leave any of the gadgets at home because he ends up using all of them:

If the idea of bringing Tech back bothers you or sounds like nonsense, I beg you to remember that this is Star Wars, a franchise that brought us "somehow Palpatine returned."

Consider Emerie's big reveal in season two. She spent multiple episodes speaking with a New Zealand accent, wearing a clone insignia patch, and has the same nose, brows, and mouth region that is signature to the clones, and they were hiding it behind a pair of glasses.

Our boy Rex is eating sad chili in a cave instead of having amassed significant numbers or a real plan in the last year and soon he'll be eating sad chili in a motorhome because this show really isn't that complicated.

Which brings us back to our very resourceful and well-funded assassin.

If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, and you're watching Star Wars, it's probably a duck.

And whether or not it's good writing, this authority-averse little duck is wearing his pre-reprogramming personality on his sleeve.

Cody is out there somewhere shuddering over what he did to give anybody the impression that any amount of brainwashing could turn him into this while the other assassins still have good manners and posture. Check out Part 1 for a comparison of CX from season 2's voice and attitude vs. CX-2.

Paul Merton: ‘I stayed in one of the world’s worst hotels in China’

The comedian recalls terrible hotels in China, mishaps with malaria tablets and why he’s happiest holidaying in the UK

Interview by Nick McGrath

From The Sunday Times, 22nd February 2023

Paul Merton, 65, first performed at the Comedy Store in 1982 and since 1990 has been a fixture on the BBC’s Have I Got News for You, which returns this spring for its 65th series. He lives in London with his third wife, Suki Webster, his co-star on Channel 5’s Motorhoming with Merton & Webster

My first holiday of any substance was to a holiday camp in Hemsby, on the edge of the Norfolk Broads. I was eight years old and I loved it. I loved the space to run around and the people drinking beer and watching the shows in the ballroom. It felt idyllic.

I visited Ireland a couple of years later and got a lot of attention from my mum’s relatives, which was great for my performer’s ego. We saw the Ring of Kerry and I was charmed by the locals’ love of words and storytelling.

I spent most of the Eighties living in a bedsit earning very little money, so the first time I travelled further afield was in 1987, when I went all the way to Australia, with a heavy cold, to visit my girlfriend at the time.

The cheapest route was London to Sydney, via Athens and Singapore. In Athens, the complimentary coach from the hotel to the airport was full of boy scouts from Liechtenstein, who were on their way to Sydney for an international scouting jamboree. Being stared at by three-dozen hostile Liechtensteiner boy scouts is an experience I won’t forget.

After a two-day delay in Singapore, I eventually got to Sydney on Christmas Day with horrible jet lag and an even heavier cold, sat down to Christmas lunch in 35C heat, then fell asleep for 16 hours. It felt like I’d been kicked in the head by a horse.

I’d only been earning £30 a gig, sometimes £10 even, so holidays were rare. But as my career took off, I travelled more — including to Kenya in 1990, where I had a terrible experience with anti-malarial drugs. Back then you had to take a weekly and daily pill and I had a severe reaction to the weekly pill, but it took a while to work out what the problem was.

Each Friday, first in Kenya and then back home in London, I’d take this pill then start to hallucinate. I got these paranoid thoughts, where I believed I was being followed by the Freemasons and could predict the next song on the radio. Which I couldn’t.

I then went to places like St Lucia, but felt uncomfortable driving around in a rented Land Rover that probably represented what some people there might earn in half a lifetime. I felt the same visiting Cape Town.

I was lucky enough to film a couple of travel documentary series in India and China — and had totally contrasting experiences. The poverty was dramatic in India, but the people were polite and proud and when I returned to film in Mumbai, Delhi and Calcutta, they found our earnestly awful attempts at Bollywood improv hilarious and gave us multiple standing ovations.

I wouldn’t return on holiday to China, as the state interference leaves a bit of a nasty taste, as does the spitting. You literally pull up at some traffic lights and a woman in a very nice car will open her window and spit on the road. Everybody does it. Maybe a popular Chinese film star was a passionate spitter. Or perhaps Chairman Mao decreed it a healthy habit. Filming while surrounded on all sides by armed soldiers wasn’t massively relaxing either.

I also stayed in one of the world’s worst hotels in China. The foyer had a tarpaulin covered in some unusually dark stains and the room had bits of wall missing and stank of urine. I moved to a nearby hotel which was equally basic but clean, at least, although the TV was puzzling. It had a single channel showing a military man laden with medals berating a group of people for hours on end while they looked shamefaced.

I’d love to visit New Zealand as everyone raves about it. Another place I definitely won’t go back to is Tahiti, which everyone imagines is a South Sea paradise, but for me, it wasn’t. The hotel I stayed in was completely overrun by cats.

These days I prefer British holidays, as airports in the 21st century leave you with a low level of anxiety. My wife and I now love travelling round Britain in our motorhome, which is basically a hotel room on wheels. If we all could drop the idea that we have to go on holiday somewhere that has guaranteed sun, holidaying in this country has a lot going for it.

Paul and Suki will be speaking at the Caravan, Camping & Motorhome Show at the NEC Birmingham, which runs from February 21 to 26 (ccmshow.co.uk)

Making The Most of the Day

After three wonderful nights in Pauanui including our last night at the well-located POP, it was time to move on. Our first thoughts were to drive to Tairua and look at some of the freedom camping spots with a view to staying there. One of the issues with a nine-metre motorhome is the lack of available spots for something our size. However the NZMCA App showed a spot located next to the dump…

[campercocampervanshirelimited]

Motorhomes and campervans are like travelling homes that let you go wherever you want without leaving the comforts of home behind. You get more space and luxury with a motorhome, like a small house that moves. With a campervan, you get a more simple and compact living space that's easy to drive around. This article will break down the differences between motorhomes and campervans, helping you understand what each one offers. By the end, you'll have a clearer picture of what suits your travel needs and preferences best, whether you're considering a Christchurch motorhome hire or a Queenstown campervan hire.

Size and Comfort

Motorhome

Motorhomes are generally bigger and offer more space and comfort. They are like little apartments on wheels, with separate areas for sleeping, cooking, and relaxing. A motorhome might be the best choice if you're planning a long trip or have a big family. Many travellers opt for motorhome hire in Christchurch or other popular locations to enjoy a roomy and comfortable experience.

2. Campervan

Campervans are smaller and more compact. They usually have just what you need without extra frills. Campervans are great for couples or small groups who want to travel light and are happy with less space. South Island campervan hire, for example, is a popular choice for those looking to explore on a budget.

Features and Facilities 1. Motorhome

A motorhome usually has a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom, and other amenities like TV and air conditioning. It's like having a small house you can drive around! If you're looking for a comfortable and spacious journey, this might be the right option.

2. Campervan

A campervan is more basic. There might be a simple kitchenette and sleeping area, but usually no separate bathroom. Queenstown campervan hire, or similar options, is perfect for those who love the idea of simple living on the road. If you are a fan of minimalism and want to be closer to nature, a campervan offers a more raw and authentic travelling experience, giving you just what you need and nothing more.

Cost 1. Motorhome With all those extras, motorhomes usually cost more to rent or buy. Fuel costs might also be higher because motorhomes are larger and heavier. If comfort and luxury are your top priorities, and you're willing to spend a bit more, a motorhome could be your ideal home on wheels.

2. Campervan

Campervans are often a more affordable choice. They are smaller and lighter, so they usually use less fuel. This might be the way to go if you're travelling on a tight budget. A campervan can offer a fantastic, budget-friendly adventure that still keeps you comfortable.

Flexibility 1. Motorhome

Motorhomes are bigger, so driving or parking in busy areas might be harder. They are great for staying in one place for a while and really settling in. A motorhome offers stability and space to unwind at your own pace if your journey is more about leisurely exploration and less about constant movement.

Campervan

Campervans are more nimble and easy to drive around. If you're planning to move from place to place frequently and explore different sites, a campervan might be a better choice. This feature makes them perfect for travellers who crave spontaneous exploration and adventure.

Conclusion

Choosing between a motorhome and a campervan depends on your needs, budget, and travel style. Think about what's most important to you, whether it's space, comfort, cost, or flexibility, and that will guide your choice. And if you're considering exploring the beautiful landscapes of New Zealand, why not check out CamperCo for an unforgettable journey? They offer great options to suit every traveller's needs and will make your adventure on wheels an experience to remember. For detailed information, visit this website- Camperco.co.nz.

FAQs

Is it easier to drive a campervan or a motorhome?

Campervans are generally easier to drive due to their smaller size and more car-like handling. They're similar to driving a larger van, which many people find manageable. Motorhomes, especially the bigger ones, can be more challenging to drive. They require getting used to the size, turning radius, and manoeuvrability, especially in tight spaces or on narrow roads.

Which one is better for a short weekend trip, a motorhome or a campervan?

For a short weekend trip, a campervan is often more convenient as they are quicker to set up and pack up. They're smaller, so you can park them more easily, even in smaller campsites or urban areas. You have more amenities with a motorhome, but for a short trip, you might not need all the extra space and facilities.

How many people can comfortably sleep in a motorhome and a campervan?

Motorhomes can usually sleep more people, often 4 to 6, because they're bigger. Campervans usually sleep 2 to 4 people. Think about how many people will travel with you and how much space you need to sleep comfortably.

Reflection

at first the only moment my type was doing was either moving across the page or changing size. I wanted it to make more dynamic movements. I learnt how to make the type move along a path, which gives it a much cooler and organic look, looks like it’s really moving or driving along the road. 

originally my animation was going to be predominantly image based. It would follow a motorhome driving a long a country road, revealing the type at the end as the hero, as the shot would zoom out revealing that the road is actually the word. However, with this idea the only element of ‘moving’ type was the word being revealed at the end, and it was only changing scale, so it wasn’t really fitting the brief, and displaying type as the main focus. Therefore after coming up with the phrase ‘Waka on Wheels’ with Emil, I decided each frame would showcase the type ( a word) in a different way. This also displays my theme more. 

I revisited my colour palette as I feel it doesn’t reflect a New Zealand environment very much, and looked more like an American road with desert esc colours. I brightened up the greens to reflect New Zealand a bit more and added in some trees. I tried adding a sound effect of a vehicle driving just to add some life and depth to the animation, however, the sound just made it sound sort of weird.

I’m proud of how much I learnt on after effects, seeing as it was quite a bit more challenging to use than I had initially thought it would be. Though It is pretty straightforward when doing basic things like moving text across the screen or changing the size etc, I found it quite difficult to move things exactly how I wanted them to. For example trying to make the motorhome look like it was really driving, making it go along a path at the right speed, and adding some bumpiness to the movement. While it was really challenging, I think that using after effects has expanded my skillset, and I definitely feel more comfortable using it than i did before.
