Re: Booing at the paralymics

Politicians shouldn't be getting involved in sport.
Having seen the interview with the bouncy South African, he'd be getting my boo for unsportsmanlike conduct.:thumbdown:

Re: Positive post only !!!!!

I've travelled well and lived and worked in many countries, and never felt more "at home" than since we moved here.

Re: Is NZ really that bad?

Re: Shortland Street

Re: 49 Bristolian in Torbay seeks cultured Brits for like-minded connection...

I'm quite sure that there must be herds of clairvoyant inner child minders, who screech as they leap in their NON HOMOSEXUAL dance routines.

Re: Your attitude

You'll find a few people (mainly in Papamoa), that want that little bit of colonialism to still exist. Surrounded by natives, they sit and drink Pimms and glorify the beauty of Blighty, and long for...

Re: The great kiwi pastime of shooting your mate claims another !

We met a couple a few weeks ago at a mates party.
They haven't bought ham, bacon or pork for years.
They've got half a dozen dogs, and the freezer's full of wild pork. :thumbup:
