@waynowski: nothing, she met some other guy and fell in love, eventually married him, gave birth to a son, divorced, became a lawyer, and we talk from time to time. Some years ago, I told her about how much I loved her,back then, and she said, she knew, but she never wanted more than a normal friendship, she just couldn`t tell me, because she was afraid of hurting me.

If you ever registered it, it could be interesting to call the RCCNZ and find out if anyone re-registered it. If not then maybe you'll still get a call some day.
I dropped a $650 camera down Summit Valley on Mt Taranaki last Winter, last seen bouncing down the ice in 50 bits.
Turns out that particular model isn't available in NZ, so insurance company bought me the local 'equivalent'...a $1700 camera.
Thank you Mt Taranaki.
just imagine how much insurance would have given you if you dropped it off mt blanc......
About 10 grand I reckon :-)
