Thanks for the reply and reassurance!

Re Queer Eye, I couldn't agree more: after the 3rd episode I stopped watching, because the formula is so rigidly applied that it becomes tedious. The product placement is so in-your-face, and as for the blonde 'fashion guy', his taste is just appalling - can you believe that he really feels that recycling your 80s shoestring ties as novelty belts is going to impress anyone besides Greenpeace?!?!?!

Re NZ tips: you're very welcome, I hope you have a great time!
