Matt... still messing about here at 2am .. may as well get a cab straight to the airport soon, with all the insane hassles SYD airport is having at present!

No offence taken, and I'll buy you an Altbier in Dusseldorf! We all learn all sorts of crazy stuff on these boards. Actually went and looked up a book after last post (in case I was wrong about Abel Tasman to be honest!) and found he discovered not only New Zealand, but ALSO Fiji and Tonga, so this discussion taught me that .. so thank you!
