One of my earliest memories was when I was really young and me and my sister and brother went to the back of the farm and there was a pile of kiwifruit even bigger than me, so we ate a heap of them even though they were for the cows. All I was wearing was my togs and gumboots but IDK why I was in my togs.

Okay, so you're from New Zealand (kiwi), and you guys have weird names for shoes.

i_am_famous July 20 2009, 07:19:49 UTC

Gumboots is not a weird name. What are they in america? Wellingtons? Cos some people call them wellys here too.

adelaidejewel July 20 2009, 07:20:26 UTC

That's what wiki says.

I've never heard gumboots used before, lol.

it's not a bad thing! I feel like I've learned something new this evening.

That's funny, because Stephen King referred to them as gumboots in the book I'm reading.

togs? YOU AND YOUR KIWI SPEAK :P I tried to look it up, is it coat?

i_am_famous July 20 2009, 07:29:20 UTC

Bathers!

corrrine July 20 2009, 07:38:52 UTC

gumboots isn't weird, it's easy enough to figure out but I am at such a loss trying to figure out bathers D: OMG DUH I just googled "togs new zealand" and finally figured it out! I'm tired. I've also decided to imagine your voice as jermaine's from flight of the conchords ;)

i_am_famous July 20 2009, 07:41:49 UTC

OH what? Do you not call them bathers? What do Americans call them!?

And that is fine, we probably sound very similar!

corrrine July 20 2009, 07:43:33 UTC

bathing suit, I think? assuming my googling was correct!

and I love him!

monotonousglory July 20 2009, 07:42:38 UTC

togs like swimmers/bathers right? it must've been pretty wet! also how come the cows got all the delicious fruit?

i_am_famous July 20 2009, 07:43:32 UTC

yep

We got it from an orchard, it was too bruised to sell or something so they gave us the old ones for the cows. There were some rotten ones and stuff but we just picked through that haha
