So.... Today

Well, today I had a Flight Of The Conchords Shindig.

I had a sign out on the gate which was apparently quite amusing to Beckie's Mum, and Bex's grandma didn't know what a "shindig" was.
I gave the usual grand tour, found my poor cat howling under the spare room bed. I realised he didnt like strangers, but it was worse than I'd ever imagined. I also explained the food choices. I had a true kiwiana theme, i.e. L&P (which Jemaine Clement advertises) kiwifruit, well, I cbf to go on, so just know that it was all NZ stuff. I covered the walls of the lounge with posters of pictures of Brett and Jemaine.
Beckie and I pooled through a photography magazine, picking out all the gadgets that we want.
About halfway through the series i went outside to show my windsock, and Beckie tagged me. For the next hour the four of us played tag. I never realised how many hiding places were in my house. Beckie scared me at least 4 times within the first 15 minutes, not on purpose, but by me looking around a door and her just standing there. Soon the doors were all open and my house was completely open to anything.
Eventually I was trying to find them, and I searched every inch of the house, till I got a text from Cate "Your pray is outside", I think she meant 'prey'.
So i got to the end of my drive running, and they were waiting at the opposite side of the street! Then it was an all out rush, they were running and screaming, I was chasing them across one street and onto the next. Eventually I caught Beckie.
Then we went home and piled into the spare room to use the laptop. We went through "Health Pride", we looked at clothes, homewares. We tried to get Beckie to prankcall them again, and this time ask if the lace chemisette was suitable for women with a larger bust. unfortunatly we couldnt fork out the money to pay for the call.
Then we returned downstairs for more FOTC and laughs.
