Dating by Flatting

28 09 2005

No, Im not talking about screwing the crew.

But, I have always said that flathunting or flatmate hunting is a good way to meet women in a casual and outgoing environment.

They ensure they are well presented, are very conversational and you can glean a lot of information rather quickly.
It seems the idea is now out in the open.

Dating by Flatmate wanted ads.



Motueka - Why did I ever leave?

12 08 2005

Most people are keen to stay out of the pooh, but not some foolhardy Motueka swimmers and kayakers.

Motueka Community Board is having to warn swimmers to stay out of its sewage ponds.

Chairman Cliff Satherley said board members were “flabbergasted” at the discovery.

“We couldn’t believe it. It defies logic.”

The ponds are fenced and locked but Tasman District Council staff reported finding people kayaking, swimming and picnicking in the area, he said.

Mr Satherley said the ponds looked almost like a scenic area but the signs, fencing and occasional smell should be enough to keep people away.

“You’d think common sense would prevail.”

The council would erect more signs at the site.
Swimmers urged to stay out of sewage ponds



Tipsy pigeons

12 08 2005

Wood pigeons in Whangarei, New Zealand, are having to be rescued after becoming drunk on guava berries.

The berries ferment and intoxicate them, the BBC reports. A hard winter killed their usual forest food.

Twenty-six birds had been rescued in the past month, said Robert Webb of the Whangarei Native Bird Recovery Centre.

“The birds are coming into the city to look for food and are eating the guava berries, which gets them paralytic.

“We have to sober them up, give them lots of water and fresh liquids and keep them for a few days.”
