| Happy Waitangi Day fellow Kiwis. Let the spitting, arse showing, mud throwing and general abuse begin. |

| I think they should rename it "New Zealand Day", to stop all the bollocks that goes on. |

| I was there when Dame Cath got the gob full. Thought the GG's naval escort was going run through Tame Iti with a sabre. All good stuff. |

| Yes, it was sad but they were outnumbered so it could well have been the last thing they did. Nowhere else in the world would have put up with it. |

| Totally impractical I know, but I would quite happily go back to a time before legislation overtook common sense. |

| Aren't you a Kiwi now too, Hanré? By the way, what's a "technical analyst"? I'm a "technical officer" so I know what that is! |

| Not yet Mike...I'm just a permanent resident and have been for the last 4+ years! Errmmmm....I guess Technical Analyst according to the roles I perform would be similar to say a Network Admin type role with a few minor difference. |

| Thanks for the info Hanre, although I have to assume you're talking about computer stuff so I'll let it though to the keeper! G'day Murray, the pic didn't load, so we'll have to guess what the decent thing from the Maoris is |

| KFC is an acronym for "Kai for Cuzzies" NOTE: For the Ozzies. Kai (pronounced: K-eye)is the maori word for food, and Cuzzies, is a generic term used by the natives when discussing their rellies, or whanau (pronounced: far-now) |

| Thanks, Don. My font of Maori knowledge is now overflowing Kai to me is thick sweet cocoa served in the navy. Dunno if your guys had it, they were probably too busy with their rum. |
