Default Making friends with people around age 19-26

Does anyone know of any young people in the Bay of Plenty area who are in the same situation as us.....basically cannot seem to make any friends!!! We are desperate for a few nights out etc with people who generally like to 'take the mick' out of us and each other...met a Mancunian couple near the top of the mount,asking how long it takes the rest of the way...potential friends...yep....until i put my foot down a blummin trench mid-conv and they swiftly moved on.

I am such a good friend...I even treat them to baths of hot chocolate...here is a pic of my good friend Matt enjoying one.... hehe....

Bollinger??? That'd do me - don't like chocolate. Yuk!! Rather get my calories from alcohol.

We're coming to that area in the New Year, but are way tooooo old for you to find us entertaining, although are terribly immature - just ask our kids!!

I'll challenge you to a drink off, and then we could play who can take the p*$s the most? If we don't find anyone who likes sarcasm and p*$s taking hubby and I will be playing strip scrabble every nite - again?!
