Wellington postscript

 As promised this is a picture of the old Parliament Building followed by Sir Basil Spence's Beehive.
 After taking these photos we had lunch at a very quirky pub called The Backbencher. These buildings can be seen from the pub which is full of Spitting Image type figures of present and past politicians and sportsmen. This is the present Prime Minister John Key, leader of the right wing National Party, here depicted as the Blue Baron!! To his enormous credit he unveiled it!!
All for now, out of time. Best wishes
