There's nothing wrong with backing yourself but, as a country, we have some pretty high and mighty ideas sometimes. A good example is the previous Labour government's approach that, when it comes to tourism, we should only try to get the people with truckloads of money to come here for a holiday. What they called the “higher value tourists”. And I'm delighted that the Government is saying we need to get over ourselves and pretty much anyone and everyone who wants to visit from overseas is going to be welcome to come here. Nicola Willis, the new economic growth minister, is making the very good point that it was all very well for the previous government to think that getting the people with big money over here was the better bet. But that was no guarantee of big spending. She's saying today: “I want all tourists. Because, ultimately, it's not the government that decides how much a tourist spends when they come to New Zealand. The tourist will make that decision.” She says: “Our job is to make it easy for them to come in the door, easy for them to come to New Zealand. Then, when they get here, I've got great faith in our tourism providers that they'll do everything they can to get as many dollars out of those back pockets as possible.” No arguments from me there. Because we are not Venice, we are not overrun with tourists. In fact, I would say that we've never been overrun with tourists, not even before Covid. Tell that to the bloke in Queenstown though who got into an argument with a mate of mine in a burger bar there one night. We were there with a whole bunch of people and this guy was telling us how much of a pain in the backside it was to have all us out-of-towners there. “Loopies” he called us. I remember, back in the day, the locals in Wanaka used to talk about all the “loopies” coming to visit for a holiday, as well. But, as my mate politely pointed out to this guy in the burger bar - no tourists, no visitors, no Queenstown. Even our lot. Who were there on the smell of an oily rag. Another thing too is that, if we're totally honest with ourselves, we're not actually that special compared to all the other countries that international tourists have the option of visiting. Yes, New Zealand is beautiful. And when you go to places like Glenorchy, near Queenstown, for example —which I did a few weeks back, and which is a stunning part of the country— it reminds you what a special place this is. But there are lots of other special and beautiful places in the world too. Which is why I think it's great that the Government plans to get us off this high horse that the last government put us on when it comes to the type of people we want to try and get over here for a holiday. Why I think it's great that the new thinking, is that anyone who wants to come here is welcome. But. And there's always a but – actually, there are a couple of buts. One of them, is that tourism is not a silver bullet on its own. Because, generally, tourism jobs don't pay all that well. The other but —and this is the more significant one— is that if this is the approach the Government's going to take, it has to do more than what Nicola Willis is talking about. Because it's all very well to say that it's the Government's job to get the tourists here and it's the tourism operators' job to get as much money as possible out of them once they're here. But, as people in places like Franz Josef know, more visitors means more demand for basic services like public toilets and all that stuff – a demand that local councils just can't afford to meet. And this is where the Government is going to have to have more skin in the game if it really wants this open-door policy to reap the economic benefits that it wants. So yes, ditch the pipedream that New Zealand is only a place for wealthy tourists and sell us to the world and get as many visitors here as you can. But don't leave it to locals and their struggling councils to provide all the basic services and facilities that these visitors are going to need once they get here.

House prices have fallen by an average of $90,000 in parts of New Zealand after a turbulent year in the property market. That meant homeowners who bought at the height of the property boom in late 2021 could find themselves with mortgages larger than the value of their home, especially in Auckland and Wellington. But there were also some positives: the fall in prices was allowing more first-home buyers onto the property ladder. The OneRoof Property Report for 2022, published today, captured the huge market shift during the year and highlighted some risks on the horizon for homeowners. The housing market went from “fear of missing out” to “fear of overpaying”, Oneroof editor Owen Vaughan said, as a boom which started during Covid gave way to falling prices, tighter lending and uncertainty about the year ahead. Nationwide, the average property value fell by 8.15 per cent, or nearly $90,000, since a high of $1.1m at the end of February. Values fell in every region except the West Coast. Homeowners in Wellington and Auckland were worst affected. The average property value fell 17.7 per cent ($201,818) in the Greater Wellington region since prices peaked in March, with some central suburbs taking a price hit of more than $400,000. This was largely because of the withdrawal of Auckland investors who had driven much of the inflation since the Covid-19 pandemic. In Auckland, average property values fell 12 per cent (more than $180,000) since the peak. James Wilson, head of valuations at Valocity, said the fall in prices in 2022 was the largest since 2010, but had to be seen in context: the boom since Covid was one of the strongest New Zealand had ever experienced, with average growth of 33 per cent nationwide between early 2020 and early 2022. While the fall in prices may make the market more affordable for some, it raises concerns about negative equity for those who bought at the market's peak. “The data shows that the homeowners who purchased in late 2021 and early 2022 are more likely to be in negative equity position now,” Wilson said. “Investors, those with more than two properties, are likely to be less exposed as a result of the 40 per cent deposit requirements for investment properties.” Nicki Cruickshank, the principal of Tommy's real estate in Wellington, said prices went higher than expected in 2021 so the drop this year was to be expected - but she had not expected the turnaround to be so sudden. “But in the big picture most people own houses for 10 years-plus so overall they've still done well.” Sanjeev Jangra, a Loan Market mortgage adviser who works in Auckland's south, said interest rate hikes took people by surprise, especially last year's borrowers who were not expecting them to go so high so fast. There had been some positives for those wanting to get into the market. Jangra noted a switch in his client base from 40-50 per cent investors to around 80 per cent first-home buyers. Investors did not have enough equity after prices fell 15-20 per cent, he said. Looking ahead to 2023, Wilson said he expected property values were likely to keep falling but at a slower rate. A range of factors would have an impact on the market, including reduced sales activity, the election, and the Reserve Bank's inflation battle. “Inflation is the elephant in the room and won't disappear overnight. But while cost of living pressures are reaching across nearly all parts of our daily lives, we're actually not seeing a significant drop in spending and that's probably because a lot of people still haven't had to fix their mortgage at a higher rate,” Wilson said. “When that happens and those mortgage rates begin to really bite, then spending is likely to dry up. Obviously, that has bigger economic impacts but the key question is: will inflation be tamed by traditional policy or will a hard, economic landing do the job? At this point, a lot of signs point to a harder landing than would be ideal.” Highs and lows Steepest fall from market peak (region): Greater Wellington - down 17.68% ($201,818) from market peak of $1.14m Steepest fall from market peak (suburb): Waterloo, in Lower Hutt - down 23.9% ($279,200) from market peak of $1.168m Highest average property value: Herne Bay, in Auckland - $3.816m (down 2.3%, $91,000, on the previous year) Lowest average property value: Ohai, in Southland - $158,000 (up 28.5%, $35,000, on the previous year) Highest 12-month value change: Glenorchy, in Queenstown-Lakes - up 28.9% to $1.446m Lowest 12-month value change: Waiwhetu, in Lower Hutt - down 19.7% to $783,000 Highest five-year value change: Raetihi, in Ruapehu - up 212.3% to $406,000 Lowest five-year value change: Auckland Central, in Auckland - up 0.3% to $612,000 *Current to the end of October 2022 Top settled sale: Paritai Drive, in Orakei, Auckland.

Finally!  This is the content I started out with for the idea of an episode on the Campbells.  In this episode, I try to untangle the major branches of the Campbell clan, and by major, I mean these branches: MacArthur of Strachur, Craignish, Loudon, Auchenbreck, Glenorchy, and Cawdor.  I apologize if you have a particular branch that I didn't include but there are so many that if I tried to get to them all, I would never finish.  I outline the main line of the Argyll Campbells then try to explain where these branches tie in.  I also make a short mention of the MacConnochie and Ardkinglas branches.  This episode is also available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

When John Campbell of GlenOrchy takes possession of lands in Caithness, the title of Earl of Caithness, and George Sinclair's widow as payment for the debt Sinclair owed him, George Sinclair of Keiss isn't having it.  That's his inheritance and he won't take this intrusion laying down.
