Reasons to be cheerful

[ellipsis]

I'm listening to my old chook wittering on about something while she's in the kitchen...don't know why she does it, she knows I'm half fucking deaf...

[Akzle]

They can be heard in the Wellington CBD too. Surprised the hell out of me when I first heard them!

thank zelandia and a whole lot of cunts who dont "keep" cats.
hats off to them. it's impressive.

[Akzle]

Hearing kiwi is pretty cool, shame you have to go so far into the wilderness to find them..

not rly. they move through me back blocks and all teh forests around here. can hear them from my caravan.
thank all the cunts that trap and shoot predators on the east coast north of whanagrei.
kiwi corridor. win.

they've also been released on a stack of island in teh hauraki.

[Honest Andy]

Yeah tru dat. I was thinking of places like the Uruweras and forgetting seeing them around the campsite at Trounsen park

I'm staying in a house in Oban ... about 500 meters from the pub. Hardly a "Wilderness" ...

I get a boat to and from work ... and I often walk to and from the boat. I actually see kiwi's two or three times a week.

Perhaps then ... it's a good thing you can't hear what she is saying ... and she's counting on you not hearing.

I am so jealous, one island I have been wanting to visit for a hunt and experience the tranquillity for about 50yrs.

The only downside is ... it's 500 meters (downhill) TO the pub ...

Lot harder to hurt yourself rolling up hill, lol mind you if you get it wrong you will end up back at the watering hole.

[TheDemonLord]

Oh!

The Horror!

Anything but ending back at the Pub!

[eldog]

I work in Wellington and walk to and from work, I see zero kiwi's but shitloads of Indians and Chinese.

[F5 Dave]

Are they the ones that leave their curtains open?

Just sayin. Everyone needs a hobby.

[sidecar bob]

Well, I guess that's that then.
I've been fixing BMW cars at the same location for 23 years, but 27 years in the same street.
I went to the TT last month & while I was away, I thought, fuck this shit, I don't need the stress anymore, so listed my business up on trademe with a borderline stupid price.
12 enquiries & 20 days after listing it, it's sold.
I'm thinking Perpignan in the south of France is looking very good, lovely climate & a day by car or air to at least 5 Moto GP circuits.

...you can pick up some good stuff for relatively cheap prices there also...a mate of mine was visiting France a couple of years back, came across a property in a small town that was 'too good to be true'...it was true and now him and his partner are winter free and own a magnificent building (a fair bit of work), and a lifestyle that some only wish or dream of...sounds good...good luck...
