Ok, now you're just trying to make me feel bad! :violin: Just kidding. : )

But yeah, my coworker is adamant about the distinctions between NZ and AUZ.

How about you, Jessie?

jessie, Jessie, Jessie,

I am an Aussie married to a kiwi (from Christchurch) so my loyalties lie with both couuntries. But i think you got it wrong, NZ does it and we do it better. LOL. Oh, Ok, the All Blacks are better than us, Auckland Zoo probably better then Melb Zoo (according to the TV Show that I love called "The Zoo"),
your accent and pronunciation better than our Aussie twang, beautiful country BUT we are bigger. A bit of friendly rivalry is good, like Melbourne vs Sydney and Auckland vs Christchurch, Aus vs NZ.

It sure is. Our countries will be forever tied because of our history together - forever allies, except in sport, who has prettier country etc etc. Is Auckland Zoo as awesome as it looks on tv? I love the show, the animals have real personality that you dont see when you visit the zoo. Have you been to the new bird enclosure where you can get up and close with the birds?

I cant believe he left. he was so good with the sumatran tigers and the cheetahs. At least he stayed in the poo business. I would prefer animal poo to human poo. they have some wonderful caring staff, love Christine (primates) and Nat (not sure what she manages, she did have a blind hippo or rhino at one stage. We are back in re-runs of the show so trent is back on telly.

With Jango, how do you cope with the poop? I saw one in a (reputable) pet shop, and I fell in love with personality and color but then he let rip, kinda turned me off, have you toilet trained him or do you know his poo timetable and put him in a certain spot for him to go? They are such a beautiful bird.

oh yes christene is amazing to talk to she knows so much, yea i went in with the cheetahs with trent for my 14th birthday he was awesome, the nat i think you are talking about works in the african section last time i went. she was with the giraffes when i saw her, (short hair very kiwi accent?)

jangos pretty good he aims for the bottom of his cage not the walls =p

i miss nisha very much she was great, oz the male tiger is a complete goofball thou =p
