^But she (Mig) is across the puddle from Pete. Although he has been known to stray out of the land of the long white-wooled paddock and spend some time in God's own country...

You're all assuming her TV persona is female.

GOD"S OWN COUNTRY, is NZ, Ping....... AOTEAROA.

The earliest recorded use of the phrase was as the title of a poem about New Zealand written by Thomas Bracken some time in the 1880s. It was published in a book of his poems in 1890, and then again in 1893 in a book containing a selection of his works, entitled Lays and Lyrics: God's Own Country and Other Poems. God's Own Country as a phrase was often used and popularised by New Zealand's longest serving prime minister, Richard John Seddon.

He last quoted it on June 10, 1906 when he sent a telegram to the Victorian premier, Thomas Bent, the day before leaving Sydney to return home to New Zealand. "Just leaving for God's own country," he wrote. He never made it, dying the next day on the ship Oswestry Grange.

Maybe he really did reach God's own country - heaven

You neglected to mention your source - Wikipedia, I would think. Interesting that (according to that same source) an Indian state is now claiming the motto. Perhaps a natural fit as company for New Zealand...

Nah - just a cheeky dig, Pete.
