Oh, and a UFO landed down in Colombo Street. They're killing everyone they see.

761143 2009-04-01 04:11:00 I heard on Auck MoreFM (as well) that Kim Crawford has released a new pinot wine variety that tastes like chocolate. You can have a sample taste by visiting the website and licking the sample square ... Jen (38)
