Oamaru's only claim-to-fame is bloody penguins - and you're not allowed to eat the fuckers...

Not quite there is Whitestone cheese as a tasty diversion.

But I do agree I could not live in Dunedin again, been there tried it, didn't even get the tee shirt.

years ago i used to windsurf and was talking to a American who was from Boston (i think) he asked if we sailed during the winter, i said na it gets a bit cold, he asked if the harbour iced over in the winter, where he sailed in the winter there were icebergs

Nah uh! I lost my virginity in Oamaru! Of course I lived there from age 4 to 27 so you would hope I would have.

The Airedale Road / Horse Gully Road detour described before is a good route too. Speaking of that, I tried to lose my virginity near Horse Gully Rd but that didn't turn out so good.

Why Jesus wasn't born in Oamaru ... they couldn't find three wise men ... AND a virgin ...

A friend is running a motor camp out from CHCH and he has a few comments which have been entertaining. He does, however, have a large amount of families who have sold up or simply taken the money offered and then ran.
A lot of people who have decided to gtfo and either head to Oz or there are some who have yet to decide which place in NZ to move to.

Another friend who has been through absolute shit over the past three years, is staying put. She has had enough of wobbly ground and constantly destroyed house contents, shrieking kids who cannot stand another event, relationship stresses and everything else that goes along with living in the area. Thank goodness they have gone camping in another part of the South Island for some rest.

There were actually. The young lady I was seeing at the time who lived out there had one. The young lady was more attractive though.

A guy I used to work with in Oamaru who trained horses as a hobby was prosecuted for having sexual relations with a horse. Must have stood on a chair as he was not that tall.

Ahh. 'Scott Base'. Previously known as 'The Richmond Motor Inn' I believe and prior to that ... 'The Rehalan' (sp?) about 35 years ago. It's where us yunguns used to go to try and get booze

A prominent real estate agent, I used to know in Dn., when asked how his race horse was getting on replied they had to put it down as it had contracted Syphylis - from the jockey.
He added, after the hullabaloo from the gathered clan died down, that they got shots for the jockey and shot the horse. He thought it should have been the other way round. Cure the horse and shoot the fucking jockey.
