Waitangi - Wai Not?

I helped to organise a Edinburgh Couchsurfing meet for Waitangi. Tuesday night Kim & I missioned out to Asda (cheap supo open 24 hours) to get the mega bargains. 10 shopping bags full and an hour later we stumbled out of the shop and on to a bus back into town. Poor Kim had to struggle with bags and bags of groceries - including a tray of 30 eggs - as we live in different parts of the city. We arranged the meet for Wednesday 6 Feb and that we were having kiwi burgers at Kim's house and had a huge response - 25 ppl showed up! bit of a squeeze but good fun had by all. Tarns came along too and ended up being the bestest kitchen bitch the world has even seen (THANKS!!). The night was filled with a little poi action, sticks, bit of singing and 'haka' posing and watched some Flight of the Conchords (legendary NZ comedy!!). We had 6 true blue kiwis there which was wicked. I wasn't drinking and instead spent lots of time cooking & cleaning etc and had everyone commenting on me being sober and that they weren't used to it (and didn't like it!)... obviously have a bad rep to work on!
