Re: Men..... in shorts!
Looking nice makes you feel good, However, new years eve me and OH invited to a party, as i would have done in UK i put on me best dress, hair done, spray tan, nails, the works. Turned up everyone was wearing joggies , hoodies, shorts teashirts. I said omg i am a bit overdressed compared to you lot. I quickly got a lot of funny looks and one said whats that supposed to mean we are dressed. i quickly changed to fit in. This was wrong Right?
Now Im thinking of selling all me designer dresses and clothes from uk on trademe a dont get to wear them, and when i do im frowned upon whats with these people eh!

It is funny though, even at corporate level here in Chch, you can be judged less on how you dress or act than which school you or your children have attended.
It’s sort of “etiquette for Billy Bob” mentality.
It is nice to sometimes feel that you can slob out, but when it is the order of the day, I must admit it does make me feel like we have moved into one giant farm yard!

Well it must be a south of equator thing; when growing up in South Africa as an English boy expat I also had the same 'huh' moments. As it normal to go to an air conditioned mall with no shoes on and walk around until the bottom of your feet are black. And also drive around with either no shoes on or flip-flops 'huh'
