No. The only "pub trivia" fact that most people here know about
ZL is the fact there's more sheep than people.

I guessed it may be.
The only "problem" visiting either VK or ZL from here is the
sheer cost. My memsahib has suggested we take a holiday in ZL,
partly based on what we've seen of the country from films, travel
programmes, documentaries etc. and partly because my kids want to
visit Middle Earth (!) and see where the Lord Of The Rings films
were shot.
It seems a great idea to me. Just the slight problem that to
travel that far you really need to stay for a decent period of
about a month which puts the cost to around 6000-8000 ukp once
plane tickets are included. If anyone from ZL wishes to subsidise
my holiday so I can tell the packet world what a splendid place
you live in send me a mail and I'll send you bank account info
:-)
