Hey Carzee, is it you who lives in Waioru??

Bearzy 02-10-2012 08:44 PM

Nope, I live down on the West Coast of the South Island. :yes:

Roachi 02-10-2012 08:45 PM

Ahh, wonder who that was then lol.
*is curious to know who the kiwis are on here* :P

Bearzy 02-10-2012 08:45 PM

I remember someone saying it, but I have no idea who.
And there's us, KelseyShroom: (Who is from the same town as me.) Uh, Narcotic Dolly: and I think there was a guy as well.

musasgal 02-10-2012 08:49 PM

NUUUUU.......there are no dots on the NZ part of the map and I'm a regular from there :(

Roachi 02-10-2012 08:50 PM

Wow there's more Kiwis then i thought xD. Don't forget Nivvy, she lives in the same city as me :P

Bearzy 02-10-2012 08:50 PM

I know right!
Wait... Another Kiwi? I didn't know about you!

musasgal 02-10-2012 08:53 PM

Carz: Yes! I'm not alone!!!

Bearzy 02-10-2012 08:54 PM

Nope, there are quite a few of us. (I just realised that I should have guessed where you were from by your signature. *facepalm*)

Roachi 02-10-2012 08:55 PM

Haha i never guessed that either... And i've seen that siggy around the place xDD.
MMM pineapple lumps :drool:

Bearzy 02-10-2012 08:56 PM

Do other places have those? Because if not, they are seriously missing out.

Roachi 02-10-2012 08:57 PM

I dunno... I think Aus does?? They got cadbury/pascal over there don't they?

Kalium 02-10-2012 08:59 PM

That's interesting Carzeebear. Now, I'm just wondering one thing, since it's a Maori name does it have any particular way for pronunciation or is it pronouced the way it looks?

@NeyzaKC, you probably need to wait a few minutes for your location to show up. :)

Ow-Teh-ah-rower.... Or at least that's how we say it, but the average New Zealander has really bad Maori skills.

Carzeebear: Ling:
This interested me! As I've heard it pronounced by an Aussie. Actually it's mentioned in a song, "six months in a leaky boat" by Split Enz, who became Crowded House. They pronounced it Ay-Oh-Teh-ah-rower.

Bearzy 02-10-2012 09:34 PM

Oh gawsh. That has got to be the most overplayed song in the country. :headdesk:

jellysundae 02-10-2012 09:36 PM

Really? :lol: I should think I'm safe in saying that it's never been played on the radio here, ever :XD

Bearzy 02-10-2012 09:38 PM

I work in a supermarket in a tourist town, and when I travel, I travel by tourist bus, so I'm probably overexposed to all songs that are "kiwiana" :lol: (It's ever so slightly painful at times.)

jellysundae 02-10-2012 09:39 PM

Haha, and there was me thinking no-one would have even the faintest idea of what song I was talking about :lol:

Bearzy 02-10-2012 09:40 PM

I think every primary school choir in the country sings that song as well. Nope, it's a well known song over here.

RoadToGallifrey 02-10-2012 09:54 PM

Our most overplayed song is '500 Miles' by The Proclaimers. :lol:

blueblackrose 02-10-2012 10:26 PM

I still have no clue if I'm showing up on the map, lol.

Nephila 02-10-2012 10:40 PM

Nuuu! Not mah secret base location! Tha Horror! *flails*

jellysundae 02-10-2012 10:52 PM

MWHAHAHAHA!! No secrets from us! :twisted:
