Hmm, after the comment "We used to have seppos approving our caches, now it's kiwis." :shock: by them in another string, I think I might know my answer to that question now. :roll: <p>

Gee the implication we are worse than the old seppos. Hmm, what about the thoughts of the previous approvers being refered to as seppos? :? Way to go fostering overseas caching relationships guys! :( :) :D :lol:

hee hee.

Oh No, Not the darn sheep again... Arghhhh!!!<p>

No I don't own any gumboots, or live within about 3km of any sheep :wink: <p>

Besides that, they bruise your shins too much. I'd much rather pick up a sheila :twisted: (there's plenty of them over here for the Kiwifruit packing season). :wink:

You don't fool us, calling them Kiwifruit. We know they're really just Chinese Gooseberries!

I assume from this that you're an Aucklander?

Has that bloke in ChCh talked of any plans with geocaching.co.nz? He's got it registered, but there's nothing up there. (I may need to give him a nudge when I move over there!)

Geepers :shock:, now that got the dictionary out! Quite true, so far I haven't met any (not that it would do them any good).<p>

Ahh, but the Zespri Kiwifruit variety Haywards, is a far cry from the original chinese gooseberries they were bred from :wink:. Don't worry, my favourite term for them is hairy berries, I haven't forgotten the old name (as I occasionally work for Zespri I have to say the official line). Personally I much prefer the new Zespri Gold, they are non acidic and aren't hairy :D.<p>

<p>

I ain't no Jafa :x (Just Another F_ck_n Aucklander). I'm from Tauranga, and no that isn't Taronga the zoo in Sydney :).<p>

<p>

I'm not aware of any immediate plans for it. He has his plate busy with his new business venture, negotiations with DOC and our societies formation. Somehow he's got to fit a life in there too, he's a very busy boy!<p>
I may need to give him a nudge when I move over there!
<p>

Be careful, I'm sure he'll have plenty of work he can delegate :D.

we are not anti-kiwis - it's just that you had already made a few posts

Ah so this is where all our sheep have gone! I told Ethel. I said never trust an Australian with sheep. Now they're hoarding them for themselves. Betcha they've got all the velcro gloves and gumboots too... ;)
