Hello this is Briggs by proxy .



Arrived in Kaiapoi .

Most agree that the proper form of the name is Kaiapohia, meaning the food depot . But some South Island Maori people say that it has always been Kaiapoi : Kai ; food ; poi ; swung . The pa or fortified village was in a strategic position and adequate food supplies could be swung towards it from all directions.

Sharing with Abby - English , Cori - Septic ( Tank ) , Celine - French & Ana - Argy - don't mention the war.

And so after a suprisingly good nite ( pool & boogie with mad Finnish guy Alexis loads of us boogied but we were the hardcore who didn't sit down ! I showed em how 2 do a ho - down 2 Reddnex ' Cotton Eye Joe ' which will make weeny laugh and I beat the local pool merchant . He took it well said ' Sharp shootin sister ' )

People from France , Argentina ( spit ) , Norway , Finland , South Africa & Latvia .
No on here from Chessington though , sadly.

I am off 2 Hamner Springs ( Hot Pools ) & tournament of mini-golf .
