Gerald Cunningham lives with his wife Susan in their 93-year-old mudbrick villa at Lauder in Central Otago. He retired in 2001 at the age of 55 to follow other interests, which include writing, photography, playing golf, fly fishing, wearing loud shirts, riding his motorcycle and collecting antique furniture - as well as just loafing.
