They are obviously thinking ...
"How much more maneuverable, better for small green lanes, cheaper to run, more environmentally friendly is that one than my wallowing beast"! "And it even fits in the car park space too."

Whilst I do agree with their comment regarding Boeing, My first though was essentially:-

According to the Air NZ website, there are no 737's in their fleet. The driver must be long retired or flies/flied for another airline, or is just an Av Geek. I'm more of an Airbus guy myself

lol, I believe they used to fly 737's - maybe its a historic plate.According to the Air NZ website, there are no 737's in their fleet. The driver must be long retired or flies/flied for another airline, or is just an Av Geek. I'm more of an Airbus guy myself
I believe the guy who owns the RR is a well known business man and petrol head here in NZ - he is the Alan sugar on "The Apprentice Aotearoa". Maybe he is an aviation geek, but I don't think he has any business interests in it. He has a motor cycle museum just down the road from the park, runs motor sport teams and is the NZ land speed holder for 350cc bikes.
He walked past us and our dog ran after his 2 little ankle biters to play.... but they turned on her with max aggression, so she skulled away

Think I've miss-interpretted that, By "ankle biters", did you mean he had little dogs or kids?

Ah good. yep, I'm with you then.Previous post applies.
It always used to make me smile. When ever I was out with my parents and their aged spaniel in our regular haunt it would amuse me how people would come in with small dogs, and the said dogs would go mental and our dog wouldn't even raise an eyebrow. He'd just lie there enjoying the fire.

Our old fella didn't do "play" in his (good) few last years. Don't blame the poor sod, he was pretty arthritic, deaf and going blind. He'd tolerate other dogs, especially small dogs, but if they got snappy at him or 'bouncy'... he'd give them what for... if he could find them
There was a cat in the garden 1 day. He knew it was there and goes charging at it. Cat crouches ready to tear him to bits, but although he knew he was there, he couldn't tell exactly where, and goes charging straight past it. Left him quite frustrated... and the cat rather bemused.
