Post Card

The following was my attempt to make my Grandpa Lamb think that I had gone crazy.  I've been living in New Zealand for the past 10 months (moved from Canada) so I wrote him a postcard trying to talk as much Kiwi slang as possible.

Giday Mate!  It's spring here which means there are heaps of fresh fruit and vege.  The kumara and passion fruit are especially choice.  Driving over here can be a bit dodgy on the metal roads.  It's good as if you can stay off the footpaths.  We pay the rent for our flat every fortnight instead of monthly.  The scenery is great especially up in the wop-wops.  Just be sure to pack some hokey pokey in the chilly bin if your going on a tramp.  It makes a great snack with a couple of bangers fresh off the barbie.  Our car got stolen by a hoon right in front of the bach.  It was just a bog-standard with not many horses under the bonnet and no gold in the boot.  I got to go take out the rubbish without a whinge.  Love you heaps.  Cheers.
