NZ (Christchurch)

Tay might be surprised - I actually like NZ :wink I did a snow season there and been a few times since plus many of the wives family are kiwis, but have to say Christchurch is one of the most boring places I've ever been to. You'd need a good reason to want to emigrate there ...
 
Shall I mention the cricket? :eek

Or the IRB sevens.

The English played the Kiwis in the 1/4 final of the Cup on Sunday. Obviously the band were playing Swing Low and the crowd were singing along. Kiwis scored a try, and a few Kiwis in front of us were giving it large, cupping their ears.

As the final hooter went, England got the ball and scored a try to win the match. I've never seen a bloke look more crestfallen.

Mind you, he might have been miserable because he was ginger, not because he was a Kiwi.

I like "boring" places - really.

You mean the 7's tournament circuit that NZ has pretty already won with 4 rounds to go?
 
I guarantee to whinge less than the Kiwis in the UK (not difficult form the ones I've met) :laugh

I dont mind if you mention the cricket, I love the game, played for years. And I have been saying since the beginning of the year that England has far better test cricketing team than NZ at the moment. The better team won.

NZ is a better one day side... but after the reaming that they got in the 2nd test... thier confidence will have gone to pieces and I imagine England will smash us in the one dayers as well.
