Yes the Rapide is lovely - I did the "Dambusters Run" over the Derwent dams a few years ago. Like an old sports car.

Walked over here many times when staying in Andersons bay during lockdown! The spray / mist over the beach seems to be a feature of New Zealand beaches.

Looks like we had similar tours --we were there in late June.
This reminded me, many years ago in Germany, in the Luneberger Heath army training area ,there are some megalithic monuments with a earthworks built around them to keep out tanks and shells.

Just seen a "youtube" video of an old TV programme by Jack Hargreaves ,who has his own specially fitted bowler, about their origin and how they migrated from the hunting field to more general use. No cowboys though, just Thames bargemen and country woodworkers.
