It's not easy out there, is it.

Do you have dealbreakers, that you just will not put up with?? (obviously we all have 'cheating' on this list)

If someone smokes, and you don't, is that a dealbreaker? Maybe you don't want to be a parent to someone else's kids?

I simply want "Mr Right For Me".

What do you want in a partner???

I thought it would be a Good Idea to start A Thread about Hip  Replacements so people can share Their Experiences & Give Advice on how they go on having Their opperations done & how they recovered afterwards.

Watched this last night, got to say it was pretty good.

Another Taika Waititi masterpiece

Start my correspondence course on monday through the International Culinary School, can't wait.  Most of the course is correspondence but there will be some field work involved, love cooking and hoping that at my age, it may help me get employment in the future, it is NZQA approved so that is good.  very hard to find work at my age

Hi all!

Looking for other Eastenders fans!

So, I better start the ball rolling.
 
With all the hand wringing and paranoia around the so called ÔÇÿclimate crisisÔÇÖ I wasnÔÇÖt the least bit surprised to read in my now local paper (Saturday Express; Marlborough) the comparisons in years gone by.
 
At the pyramid farming region in the Waihopai valley they had 0.2 mm of rain this January.
In January 1978 they had 0 mm of rain.
In January 1939 they had massive 1.5 mm of rain.
In January 2019 had a tropical monsoon with 3.2 mm of rain.
 
The article goes on to say that New Zealand was 0.1 degrees Celsius above the 1981 ÔÇô 2010 average.
 
And for what itÔÇÖs worth BlenheimÔÇÖs mean temperature of 17.5C was 0.7C cooler than usual.
 
So there you go, whip yourselves into a frenzy now

well  thank fully...  we  (sic) are prepared  for  when the pandemic breaks out..  so our glorious  (sic) leader has informed us..  ye ha.. 19million  face masks  will be available...
