Michelle Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 The branch I worked in in the city is still closed. I for some reason seem to like the cow one too. But I agree with Richard that they probably wouldn't bounce the same. Those are probably safer with four feet My weekend lolz: nearly walked into a tv3 sports presenter (Shaun Summerfield) whilst carrying two ice cream cones at the NZ V8 racing yesterday Ok, well he clearly saw me to get out of the way before I saw him, but still lol worthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lensip max Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Such a great feeling when you walk out of that last one. Good luck for the exam! Thanks! It actually went okay (I think...)

darkshineskitty Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 The problem with slow internet is that when it finally does recur, I already have a whole list of videos built up that I want to watch, so I end up using a huge amount of bandwidth up within the first couple of days, meaning that I run out again before the month is over. Its a cycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoBear Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 I will never face slowed down internet again. Its so cheap to use on my smartphone too. Oren and I booked tickets to Japan. I'M SO EXCITED. Caps was by mistake but easier to just keep going on my phone and turned out to be rather apt usage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Ed_ Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 That's awesome. Really exciting. My local MP made a fool of himself again this week. He read a speech in Parliament that was apparently identical to a speech read by Peter Dunne a year or so ago. Labour MPs got a good laugh out of it at least.

Me Rug I Sty Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Qantas' explanation for an engine on one of their planes exploding last week is that they "found oil where oil shouldn't be". Doesn't that just fill you with confidence?Statistically, air travel is the safest form if transport. Just sayin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Ed_ Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 But perhaps they should have found the oil where oil shouldn't be before their engine exploded over Indonesia. Would have been a better outcome for all involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoBear Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 it's nice to live in a country that isn't obsessed with rugby like new zealand is but i do dislike here that when people realise i'm a kiwi they instantly think i'll want to talk about rugby. or hobbits.

_Ed_ Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Sounds like precisely my cup of tea. There was an awesome little interview with Thom from The Naked and Famous in the magazine on the plane today. My favourite bit was when he said "I don't know where the desire to write music comes from. It's like gas - you just have to let it out." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Ed_ Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Haha, Christchurch - so climatically random. When I got there last Saturday it was 7 degrees, and it didn't get above 12 all day. I was underdressed, and I was cold. I wasn't going to make the same mistake yesterday. It was 26. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spy Fox Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Thanks guys What was the show like? Besides awesome, obviously? It was so awesome. They're so funny I was one of two people wearing a TPF shirt and was full on dancing at the front of the audience. I freaked out when they played a couple of songs and basically sang the whole lot by myself. Really talented bunch. Afterwards Will came and shook my hand for coming, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoBear Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 The Naked and Famous are sold out here tomorrow so I can't go. Should I buy this necklace for my sister? She likes vintage-y looking stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacticalkat Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 Hello Moas! Long time no see! Hope everyone is doing well, its been that crazy exam time of year. The Naked and Famous are sold out here tomorrow so I can't go. Should I buy this necklace for my sister? She likes vintage-y looking stuff. I love it, it's quirky but still pretty.
