2. Blue building on right either a long drop or hq of very small branch of Conservative Party.

3. Looks a wee bit like Roxborough dam but isn't.

4 looks a bit like St Kevin's College in Oamaru but think Cadwallader might be right.

5. Maritime retreat for the rational.; September 23, 2012 at 6:37 PM

Not sure who's place but I am betting they are watching the V8 Supercars. Location looks Central Otago.

Maraetai Dam on the Waikato.

Olveston House in Dunedin.

Havelock in the Sounds.; September 24, 2012 at 12:33 AM
