It's shite here - typical low misty cloud that makes it feel like noone else lives nearby.

Yes that did sound good - not a great day for my stopover today but Hubby is 'working' at work today so no option for that anyway

Breaking wind with gay abandon, I thought you said you hated wind!

John.

Never said I hated it...just that I'd rather do without!

The only time I like wind is when it is gale force, howling away on a really stormy night with lightning and thunder...

It seems to have an "energizing" effect on me

Used to get wicked electrical storms in Singapore. Burnt my teachers house down one night despite the lightening dividers on the roof. Bloody awesome and so fricken loud, really hot and all the toads and snakes would come out on the roads. Only lightening experience that has come close in NZ was when we lived in New Plymouth - they seem to get some good ones too.

Up by the wind turbine. In fact just over the back of there is a little racetrack...

Nookie being the operative word here, never mind where or what the place is!

But then, we males are forced to pretend we care about such things simply to indulge your female wants.

Customer service is not new, it is simply an extrapolation of male qualities.

Basically deep down for us it's "nookie"

Cheers John.

Nope - only ever did it outside once when Trashy was still living in Welly, but that was more from necessity as we were tired of his flatmates bursting in on us when the urge took us. Saw a number of suitable spots when I went off exploring but I'm bggered if I can remember where they are.

In reference to your partner m'dear - YOU KEEP THAT THING AWAY FROM ME WITHOUT ITS PANTS ON.

Mmmm. The area around Twizel in the MacKenzie Basin was and probably still is great for that. ( I'm sure you know all these places 'Oldrider' / John)
> The trees around the picnic/camping area at Lake Pukaki before the dam.
> The trees in the plantation at Lake Wardell
> Under the willows on the other side of Wairepo Arm
> On the shores of Lake Benmore in one of the very secluded bays
> Late at night on the other side of Kellands Ponds while you watch the cars going up SH8
> And for the very bold, Lake Ruataniwha between the camping ground and the lake.
And all within about 10 minutes of home (except for Benmore). No wonder we stayed in Twizel for 15 years.

Ooh. I think I need to be alone for a short time now.

Thanks for sharing Oakie...shall keep it mind when we finally get round to that south island bike tour!
