Well, at the moment we’re heading for a gathering in Auckland at Victoria Park Market, 11 am Friday 12th December. It won’t be a huge affair, but at least it’s a start. 🙂 ---

C’mon, she’s more of a Oz zealander really. It’s just the odd bit of new zealanderish that sometimes makes me laugh, especially if we’ve been drinking. My favourite is ‘mint slice’, it comes out as ‘munt’ everytime. ---

So far, it’s still on for 11 am at Victoria Park Market, with Auckland Dopers identifying themselves by carrying oranges (thanks for the suggestion, **TLD** ). I’ll have a camera, but I hope there are steadier paws than mine to take shots on the day. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ok-just-how-many-kiwi-dopers-are-there/214988.md?page=2)
