,,, Helen doesn't have as much class as that octopus! ZCAT has a Chatham Islands baseball cap. I managed to grab it off the very same octopus when it was in Wellington harbour for a night on the town. The Chathams are remote, for certain. My father in law was a commercial fisherman. He fished off these islands for some years, on and off. There's not even five hundred people there - a real frontier. It's rich in crayfish (lobster) and several varieties of fish. It's about a two and a half hour trip on a Convair to get there - I'm talking REMOTE.

Ah, sorry about that. Easy mistake to make though - neither of them appear to have a spine.

That's okay - some days, finding a place like that and telling the rest of the world to piss off sounds pretty good. At least the seafood is good, I bet ;)
