christchurch
it's amazing what a lick of sunshine can do for a place. christchurch may not be spectacular, but it is certainly pleasant: entrancing for prisoners of any urban jungle, but merely background, albeit pretty enough, to anyone spoilt on sunny days by the cherwell or lazing in greenwich park.i have been being kept amused by two hilarious young scots (rory and emily). rory had heard from some dubious source that you could pay your way around nz by busking, so he bought himself a guitar today; despite the fact that he can only play the chords to wonderwall, and that badly, he hit the streets with a sign and a smile. amazingly, he made nearly $20 in three hours... and he really cannot play the guitar at all! bemused faces and comedy moments abound, especially when he busked in his underpants at lunchtime. in the central square. the packed central square. legendary.
