80-year-old freedom camper fined $400 for staying put in wild weather

In New Plymouth, New Zealand, 80-year-old Bill McMurray, who has lived in his motorhome with two dogs for nearly 11 years, received a $400 fine for overstaying at the free Lake Rotomanu freedom camping site. He stayed an extra night due to high winds reaching 100 km/h, deeming it unsafe to drive his 7-metre-long vehicle. The New Plymouth District Council acknowledged the weather but upheld the fine, suggesting he could have parked elsewhere or used a campground within a half-hour drive. Since June last year, 359 infringement notices have been issued at the site, with 95 successfully challenged.

Tourism Holdings cuts profit outlook as takeover bid emerges

Tourism Holdings (THL), a campervan rental group, has downgraded its full-year net profit forecast for FY26 to $40–43 million from $43–47 million, citing softer consumer confidence, global travel disruption, and Middle East conflict impact on vehicle sales. The company also confirmed receiving a revised non-binding takeover proposal from a consortium led by BGH Capital and the Trouchet family, which already holds 19.9% of THL shares. The indicative offer is $3.10 per share in cash, expiring on June 12 if no response. THL shares rose nearly 30% on the NZX to $2.83.
