    Didn’t anyone tell them that pies are banned now in New Zealand?

    FFS

    That clip reminds me of everything I detested about Kiwi’s when I lived and worked in the UK.

    I was often asked “are you an Aussie” and was always more than happy to fib and say yes.

    Looks like they’ve been at The Church….

    I also avoided the “two year” Kiwis when I lived in London. Nothing but non-stop whinging about the UK.

    “f*** off back to NZ, then, you to*****”

    Yep, classic tossers.

    They all moan about the UK despite busting their butts to get there in the first place.
    They moan about the weather despite coming from Dunedin or Invercargill.
    They like to give the impression we all live a beach lifestyle and tell all the Poms that all Kiwi’s grew up at the beach when the reality is that they come from Palmerston North.

    They are more than happy to tell everybody that the UK is a dump when the reality is that they have never been north of the Watford gap or ever ventured outside the M25.

    The standard uniform is crappy clothing and a prominent bone carving, they all suffer from an identify crisis and have a annoying habit of performing a drunken Haka at the drop of a hat in some stupid belief that the Poms actually want to see a rain dance performed by a pasty white Kiwi.

    Laughs. Spot on, BigBro.

    We lived well away from them, in Finchley. Our local was thankfully antipodean free. Even the bar-staff were mostly East European.

    Still, can’t blame the youngsters. They quickly move on to Corfu, and then back to “tropical” Palmerston North, where they spend their rest of their lives telling disinterested people “there was this cool time in London when we…”

    But enough of the hakas already. It’s just embarrassing….

    Pamly is near plenty of beaches, infact thats where most of the now banned after-parties for the balls and such normally end up, lots of palmy drunks on the beach. though they are all black-sand beeches, lol.
    Arnt meat pies a commonwealth thing? i would of thought you would find them aplenty in the UK?

    hello Peter, this is grumpy smurf: you’re blue.

    Not grumpy, just stating the truth :)

    Kind of depressing to see that nothing much has changed…
