Hi :). Anything else you'd like to talk about?

Hi ourquest!

Erm, let me see... Female, happily married, one bambina. Geek by profession. Love photography and hanging out having a nice coffee with friends. Currently watching "An Inconvenient Truth" and it's scaring the willies out of me! :eek: Uh... so to speak ;)

Used to be on another rather well-known expat site, but prefer a nicer site. Love the feel of this one already. Looking forward to getting to know people here. Almost a little reticent to say too much more right now in case I'm being stalked. :laugh But fingers crossed I'm not! Another expat I hold in great respect and love hanging out with is on this site, so feel comfy here. :)

Oh, and I love Flight of the Conchords - see sig!

He he, just noticed if you read your post one published line at a time it reads "Love hanging" - twice. Is this a co-incidence or are you trying to tell us something?

What by? ankles?

Hi Lindsey. Not George. Sorry about that! Well we missed winter, but spring is one of the windiest times of the year. Got nearly blown down the street more then once. No exaggeration! :laugh (actually I shouldn't laugh as it can be dangerous - last year a schoolgirl in ChCh got blown into the path of a bus and died :( )

Summer was beaut here! Apparently the warmest in a decade, and was a bit too hot on some days. Didn't need even a light jacket for a good two months. Very very bearable! :clap

Hi Moorf! I'm not telling :p I'm also not running, per se, just glad I'm gone from there. :nice1 I like the emotes here...

Your screen name and avatar take me back to the days of Tony Hart and Vision On. :nice1

:D You know you're old when your avatar invokes memories of childhood days :wah

I was quite amazed by the wind in Welly - I always thought people must be exaggerating until I experienced it myself - I really shouldn't have chosen Welly to be the place to don a dress for the first time in a decade :o

Don't I still have my Moorf lunchbox from a colouring competition I won where I got to meet Patrick Dowling the write, not even Tony Hart :o

I passed a certain decade milestone this year. Now have a summer birthday, very nice! :cheers

:laugh Oh yeah I know what you mean! I have some very comfortable, but light skirts. They whip up around my boobs if I'm not careful and hold them down. :laugh

Moorf
24th May 2008, 03:16 PM
Hah - a skirt doesn't have to ride up too far these days to show my boobs :laugh:laugh

Hi Leanne! Blimey your winters must be harsh! :eek:

It was a rough winter hitting -40 and -50 at times :wah...but we're a tough lot. Hoping that was my last one (at least for a while). Hoping to be in Auckland by Sept. :D

Moorf, that's too funny! :laugh

Leanne, I used to live in the US midwest. I thought last year's winter was quite brutal enough. Apparently this year it was still snowing in April. :D I found it really hard to not gloat! :laugh

Hey, some of us had to live through this never ending winter!

In fact it's still pretty cold for May.

Hello M-squared!
I think we have a lot in common!
So, you can be the Hiphopapotamus and I'll be the Rhymenocerus, unless you want to trade?

PS. I have a pair of socks called M-squared from Sockdreams.com... coincidence?

:laugh Yes we have a LOT in common! I'm the Hiphopotamus, my lyrics are bottomless! ..... *embarrassed cough* LOL!!!

I'm not a leggy blonde... LOL

Loooooove Flight of the Conchords! And (drat drat and thrice drat!) I missed them when they showed up and did a quick impromptu gig at a small record shop in Wellington in summer. Waaaaaaaah!!!!! :mad: :(

Not heard of the sock brand though... :confused:

Here's the M-squared socks :)
