Roku ban - A garden without dirt?



Again beginnings.....

To paraphrase someone i know all too well - The way you write seems to be unrepresentative of the way you speak when i call you on skype.... Now to quote - "you write like a smart person but when i talk to you ya still sound like a rangi bro."

Thank-you for your honesty little bro.

So its started to rain outside - apparently its a cycle... a yearly event that happens (surprise surprise) every year. The rain lasts 2 weeks and then you endure a level of humidity close to the feeling, that could accurately be described as living in a bowl of jelly (this is how i have interpreted what i have been told anyway).

Pff - bring it...

So as i do most weekends, i find myself standing in the supermarket intrigued, while at the same time oblivious to every label that surrounds me.... im not going to try and make this sound any smarter than it was, but have you ever bought a beer only to find out its a super fizzy apple juice? Yeah probably not - it was gutting - but then it gets worse when a friend comes round and tells you the beer you thought you had bought is actually called "kids drink"....... yeah even more dissapointing.

Speaking of beer, I went out to a beer "garden" last weekend - a brilliant idea that would never work in New Zealand (due to our national inherent nature to excessively drink till we do something stupid or collapse) but it was fascinating non the less. Basically you pay $50.00 and you can eat and drink all you want for a two hour period... no one told us to leave so we stayed till closing enjoying the delights of hot saki (which seems to all of a sudden hit you like a left hook, unsuspectingly delivered by a fat girl at a cake eating competition because you looked at her cake with desire). The event was held on the roof of some high rise building in the middle of town that they had covered in astro turf and decked out with outdoor dining..... I did enjoy the evening and i feel as though the evening enjoyed me.

Ok so im going to cut out now and go explain the spoken difference between 1 woman and a group of women to a group of 7 year olds (some of you will understand this ever so tough pronuciation for me).

play nicely now........
