Description

A visitor to New Zealand for the Rugby World Cup complains to the man from whom he has rented a pitiful room that he had expected a harbour view because of the large sum he paid. The landlord tells him that he can see the sea from the roof and goes on to ask him if he can rent him some soap. Refers to the huge numbers of visitors expected for the World Cup and the premium that unscrupulous people will be able to charge for rooms.
