Kiwi Talk
Hello Everyone!
Here is part of our speech from our final presentation. It was greatly enjoyed by all! Thanks to our friends in New Plymouth who helped write it!
"Right, the welcome in Wellington was quite the bun fight, and before you knew it, Bob's your uncle, the exchange was underway.
We came prepared with our togs expecting summer weather and instead have had to parade around in gum boots, parkas and beanies. But that's life.
We have had our share of adventures; there was this one time we got up at sparrow fart to go on a tikki tour and ended up the boo hii. Our kack-handed driver, with his pucker rude Holden Ute had no clue. Some of those roads really gave us the colly wobbles. After my feed of greasies and shandies the night before I had a case of the dreaded lurgy. This didn't help, Boy.
Strewth! Take a shifty at this mate! The boot was stuffed with our new merino jumpers and the chilly bin, which was chalk a bloc full of pavolva, hokey pokey ice-cream and pineapple lumps. We had enough for Africa!
One thing we really have been impressed by is the outdoor and active lifestyle of so many kiwis. For example one of our hosts, who was 74 years old busted a gut doing a ton while we climbed a mountain! He went on for yonks! We really had to rattle our dags. Crickey Dick! Did we feel like bugger lugs.
So, I had to bludge some glad rags for this flash do in Rotorua. I thought I might meet a young hot Rotarian. Yeah Right!
I think at the end of the day we were home and hosed and I never even had to pack a sad. But I do need a nanna nap."
