First off let me say
Woohoo!!
I’m leaving next wednesday for Christchurch. I’ll be staying overnight then I’m making my way down to Queenstown for some serious skiing. Then I make my way back up to Christchurch and fly out on the 28th.
Are there any dopers in these areas?
Darn. 
I’m on th’ wrong island. 1,000 miles away.
Still – have a great time, Ell!
Ice Wolf, you’re always on the wrong island! 
I will have a great time… trust me.
to you, Ell.
'Cause you’re a likeable Aussie, I’ll give you a link to the
Winter Festival in Queenstown. Looks like you’ll make it for the last bit. Lucky you.
Thanks Ice Wolf, you’re not too bad for a Kiwi.
[sub]Even if we’re gonna whip your sorry arse’s in the rugby tonight**
Heh. Heh.
Umm … as far as I know I’m the only Doper in Christchurch so Email me and I’ll take you out for a beer.
Nice to see the Crusaders beat Australia last night (I can see Jade Stadium from my front porch) but damn it was cold. Ell look forward to your introduction to rugby on Saturday night, no matter where you are it’ll be on TV.
Boy, you sure are zealous about going to New Zealand!

Must… resist… bad… pun…
Well at least he’s not going to Ireland
Damn.

zephonith! You’re an Aucklander! Woo – so, I’m not alone. Hello!
[/brief hijack from the not-so-isolated]
To all NZ’s (and especially Ice Wolf): Shhhhh, you didn’t play that well.
Kipper: Email on the way.
danthemman: Oh dear.
Since Ell has surfaced a few kiwis that we didn’t know about, I’ll offer the first of many invites.
Come on over and play with us, too. All visitors welcomed, but we’re always looking for some more Aussies and New Zealanders.
Maybe, but we won the soccer too
