Yeah, yeah, yeah...
Nah....
Yeah

[Please substitute ''í' for '*']

I know I have already commented on the charming NZ accent but my lady wife was convulsed with mirth in a shop the other day.

An NZ couple were discussing a purchase:
"Are you sure they're sh*tter proof?"

After cautious and discreet checking it was established that they weren't looking at an advanced incontinence solution but at plastic camping glasses.

Which helps me understand why Kiwis always answer "Good" when they are asked how they are.

"Tough day - I'm absolutely sh*ttered" could be a touch confusing.

Still loving it here - we will be sorry to leave.

Cheers
