“We’ll keep travelling for as long as we can,” says Rodnie.

Now in 2023, Dickey has moved to Auckland with his wife Glenda to be closer to their grandkids. Navigating city life brings plenty of laughs, until COVID strikes, putting Dickey to the test. But in true Dickey style, he rallies—older, wiser, and still full of heart.
Starring Gavin Rutherford, who brings Dickey to life with humour and charm.

I remember being ‘different’ around food for most of my life. This included things such as being the person who had two cream buns at morning tea when everyone else had one; eating icing sugar by the spoonful directly from the packet; and being the family member who went into the kitchen after dinner to eat the leftovers.
There are numerous other examples – too many to list. I could overeat anything. If I couldn’t get my preferred favourites (e.g. chocolate), I’d be eating the vegetables.
