Just did a round-trip to Kaikoura where we got 5 crayfishes & 200gm of whitebait - yum yum. Just consumed 2 of them tonight. Mumsy is down & she made whitebait fritters (a NZ tradition!) and also cooked the crayfish in a special cream sauce - it was divine. When we were in Kaikoura we went to a restaurant called Pipi's & had an award-winning seafood chowder (it won best food item at the Kaikoura Seafest), and I definitely concur that it was a vundabar spread. Also had a pot of steamed mussels/clams/pipis - pure heaven.
We bought our crayfish from a place called Nin's Bin - about 20mins north of Kaikoura. Not bad quality crayfish & also averagely priced. All-in-all a day all seafood lovers (including myself) will not want to forget.

Just got back from a barbi with friends and there I found the most enjoyable, fun device I have ever seen in my whole life. It was a PS2 game that basically is karaoke but it also tests you to see if you are singing in tune. You can go head-to-head with a friend and whoever is the most in tune wins. For someone like myself who has a passion for singing this game was heaven!

I just bought a bottle (500ml) of Ribena concentrate last night and reminded myself how much I love this drink. According to the label, 100% of the blackcurrant berries that are used in New Zealand Ribena are from the South Island - good on ya southies :) I think I was pretty much weaned on the stuff when I was a baby (according to Mumsy), which probably explains my attachment to it now. Funnily enough, though, I found an alternative brand of Blackcurrant juice called Barkers which I actually like more than Ribena & it is a southern company too.
Anyways, there are many ways to have blackcurrant juice, but my favourite is hot. You should try it some time!

Went and watched Shark Tale tonight with some friends and I really enjoyed it.
It seemed like the film directors wanted to give it a real homeboy-type flavour to the movie, and for that reason Will Smith was cast well as the main character - Oscar. I'd give it a 8/10 for viewing pleasure and it did put a 'smile on my dial'.
Also, I've just put a photo album on this website with some picies of our Chihuahua puppy - Chocolat. Check it out and be jealous :)
