Lake Kaniere

[_honeyspider]

On Friday we (Alison, Ness, Sam, Tim and myself) did the road trip thing from Christchurch across to the West Coast to spend the weekend at Alison's family's bach at Lake Kaniere. (For the non-New Zealanders reading, bach = holiday home. I don't know if a bach has to be on a lake/beach to be a bach. This might be information a local needs to

Oh my beautiful Lake, how I miss you so! So pretty, so peaceful (when it isn't full of BSWs)

I had such a fucked up dream about the Lake the other night, won't bore you too much with the details but Ali, Cath and I were swimming over to Canoe Cove when a killer whale and the Loch Ness Monster popped up and started having a fight like right next to us. The killer whale bit off the Loch Ness Monster's head and took the body down to the bottom of the lake leaving the really long neck and head which Cath then decided that it would be perfect to eat for dinner so she picked it up and carried on swimming with it.
I can't get the mental image out of my head now.

Sounds like y'all had a grand old time, omg they make the best pies at Sheffield! It is funny how sitting for hours on end can really take it out of you, like just now for instance I've been watching Green Wing all afternoon eating chocolate and I really need a nap now ^_^!

That's a disturbing and very weird dream, Jennifer o_0 (I think Nessie would taste kinda gross actually. For a start, he/she would be really old and likely quite tough by now.)

OH JEN, that is a bad dream.

Dream!Cath is a freak.

There weren't any BSWs! A couple of speed boats and skiiers. Me and Ness were noodling back from the islands (she did very well) and hit Canoe Cove about the same time as a speed boat and I was having the usual images of orange toothpicks but the boat parked and so we were safe to motor back. Also we went fishing from the canoe and Tim was sitting backward holding the rod and also paddling and it was very strange and then the wind happened and we had to HEAVE it back from half way to Hans Bag. My thumb is paddle-sore.

(also did you see Boon on the first scrabble board?) :D

(also also I met your family's Argentinian billet and couldn't think of anything in Spanish to say except my peacock thing and I didn't want to freak him out because I think I already had what with my double take on seeing him because I thought he was Tim)

(Your mum had made chocolate chip bikkies and some kind of slice)

(Ohohoh and have you ever seen that Cowboy Paradise sign before? What's that all about?! It's opposite the Canoe Cove walk...)

[treacleangel]

I think the Cowboy Paradise thing is like a shooting range. That is why we had those people crash Sam's bday cos they were going there but it was closed or something like that.

Oh Ali. I'm sure Romu would have gotten a kick out of your peacock thing ^_^

Jen's weird dream is freaky. But Dream!Cath isn't behaving completly unlike me just crossing the line a little.

I do see the Boon on the scrabble. I thought pronouns were not allowed?

[phfa]

Pronouns are not allowed in normal boring anal "obeying the rules" scrabble, but by this point all bets were off. Also something can be a boon so it's not technically cheating.

They wouldn't let me have "OMG" though. But "Leet" was fine.

Aaaah, a shooting range. They did seem like shooting raneg people. Birthday crashing shooting range people.

I wonder what decapitated monster would taste like?

[potatoeangel]

It's either a shooting range or a cult, either way it's right up Timothy Newton John's alley ^_^

It was such a freaky dream, and I'm still thinking about it, the Lake was so bottomless! I think it would taste really gross, I don't think it would be too fishy, more dinosaurey.
In the last two weeks I have woken up with my leg in the air doing pilates, it happened again this morning. That's what I get for watching copious amounts of figure skating right before bed!

It could of been Boon or Noob, both are good, they're both good.

I loved your text today, Ali, made me snort and the couple sitting next to me gave me a weir'd look, the best kind of look.

"normal boring anal "obeying the rules" scrabble"

Also, y'all play anal scrabble? Sounds interesting.
