kiwi metalica fans

100513_850_img_0105.jpg

here are some people queuing for metallica tickets.  they look the sort

large centipede

100513_850_img_0112.jpg

this small large centipede was in our house.  apparently they bite. yuck.

priceless ($6.90)

100513_850_img_0116.jpg

does it have a price or not ?  and it looks like you can pay with a degreaser if you haven’t got $6.90

hung nicely

i hope you can see what’s going on here

100317_850_img_8799.jpg

it’s two adverts – one on a billboard and one on the wall behind it

100317_850_img_8801.jpg

if you stood in the road and dodged the traffic you could line them up nicely and give the hung man his head back

the pigeons fight back

100308_850_img_8572.jpg

please do not feed the pigeons

fabulous selection of “boots”

100408_850_img_9441.jpg

why the “inverted commas” ?  perhaps their foots are so loose they aren’t actually shoes ?

very cool

100313_450d_img_4044.jpg

it’s all about the label

lunch with buzz

100511_850_img_0084.jpg

i’ve got lots of chums in this new town and that’s a great thing.  here’s buzz, my oldest (in terms of know-age) NZ chum.

100511_850_img_0086.jpg

i’m not sure who my eldest friend in NZ is.  i’ll have to think about that one.

10% for lady

100511_850_img_0078.jpg

i’m nor sure if they are actually selling mothers at this shop, and if so, that the discount only applies if you bought a lady mother (rather than a man one?).  this was from auckland’s notorious k-road so who knows !

pencils and pencils

100511_850_img_0097.jpg

we had an excellent meeting at church last night.  it was enhanced (at least for me) by the huge amount of pens and pencils in this chap’s pocket.

what not to do outside an emergency exit door

100511_850_img_0089.jpg

bad move to wedge a trolley in the little alcove that the emergency exit opens on to (in my opinion)

100511_850_img_0090.jpg

DO NOT USE (please)

100424_850_img_9766.jpg

nice use of shouty capitals and a bracketed please.

deer post

100410_450d_img_5246.jpg

it’s time fences took back control and joined in the fun (rather than preventing the fun escaping).  this one has made a good effort by wearing some comedy deer antlers

misty bridge

100428_850_img_9817.jpg

new zealand has some of the coolest clouds, sometimes they even lower themselves down to near ground level

100428_850_img_9818.jpg

and sometimes they even eat the big bridge

100428_850_img_9819.jpg

camo bin

100423_850_img_9735.jpg

there’s a bin in this picture disguised as a fern tree.  can you spot it ?

100423_850_img_9738.jpg

here it is !

the sneaky long necked sheepy goat thing

100410_450d_img_5249.jpg

the sneaky long necked sheepy goat thing sneaked on to the bus and ate the spare food.  i was powerless to stop it because i had a camera in my hand.
