  10. 1964 documentary series on islands in the Hauraki gulf. A glimpse into a past long gone. The series was reprised in 2018 by the original presenters daughter. Those are also available on nzonscreen. https://www.nzonscreen.com/title/islands-of-the-gulf-rakino-and-kawau-1964/quotes
  11. He's posting video on Facebook for those with social media addictions...
