Not really Tantic sex, just wishful thinkin on my part. Mind body and soul thingy, It's the bride you know, looking for lifes answers in a sunflower seed

I keep telling her, a couple of hours on KB and a bottle of speights old dark and she'll have the answer to everything.

Feel for ya mate, bunch of teenagers or hippies, I think I win but it is mighty close.

Don't think so!! I have two South African girlfriends, and an English one... we happened to have a sleepover during the SA Vs. NZ game, so we turned that on... two South African's, two Kiwi's and one Brit. Let's just say she got so confused she started cheering for the ref!!!

Thanks for your nice comments by the way

Be sure to call in when you come over these ways!!!

love it, really enjoy it and I argue with the ref all the time like I know what I'm talking about but I aint got a clue what's going on. My city of birth is only a few ks away from the place where Rugby was invented, should be ashamed eh.

As for the comments, Just telling it how it is , I've been in a similar situation and I thought you were outstanding.

I don't want civilisation as I know it FJ, that's why I came to NZ

. Looking forward to a taste of the good life in your neck of the woods. it will be warm in November won't it.

Hey well done,know the feeling leaving home so to speak,and I'm only 160 km from home lol.Mind you having lived a majority of life in home town it was either do it now or never.Miss the hill in background but next time up home to visit friends will call for a beer.

After driving around the area for work,I can understand this area is a brilliant riding region,if your down this way I have exclusive Suzuki parking in garage,even the car is outside hehe.Boring SH3 but still good ride from NP to Palmy.

Keen to take you to a proper brewery Tui tour,they do a dark which is nicer than speights dark.

Instead of rugby get along and support Team Taranaki football for you imports,your accent will blend in well.

Happy anniversary Marty! Good move heading down under for sure. My father came here in the 50's and said if he ever had children this is where he would raise them. He used to call it the land of milk and honey...LOL I was born in Canada and have been here most of my life now, so he did what he said he would. I think I am closer to my extended family overseas than most, probably because we have no day to day contact, I would probably have driven them crazy

**BIHB@0610** · 7th August 2008, 21:59

Happy Anniversary Mr Martybabe! My lovely mummy-numb-kins is imported from the UK, and she has told me a bit about the woes of emigration. 'Course her move was made a bit sweeter by giving birth to me a few years after her arrival ....

Anyway .... may the second year bless you

And if you and the blushing bride are ever in the Plentiful Bay, gizza text - many sights to be seen and some lovely hills to climb! Hugses

Maybe....maybe not. Drop me a PM when you have a date to travel... Alex is central (to all) Otago. Q'town is an hour away, Dunedin is two. Invercargill ... who cares (just joking) two and a bit.

I'll have you know my accent is barely detectable to the naked human ear.

Another benefit of KB, people can at least read my stuff, whether or not they get the pommy humour, if I'm honest it's a bit of a struggle in the real world, I'm quite often met with blank faces and loads of whats and pardons and wtfs . Strangely when there's a bit of beer about we all communicate perfectly.

.

Thanx for the generous offers Y, I may be down that way soon.

Thanks babe, Canada was on the cards but some one told me NZ was tropical

I made the right choice, I know it. I aint saying this to butter yawl up but kiwis, on the whole, are really really friendly, bit of a culture shock after the (what the fook are you looking at) mean streets of my home town.

Thanx sweetness, I did enjoy the bay of really quite a lot, I will be back.

Only quality intelligent moms are imported from the UK, Intelligent because she came here and quality because she had a lovely girl baby, much better than smelly boys, it's been scientifically proven. Here's the link.
