| 348324 | 2006-09-17 22:38:00 | hey can any one translate this whakatauki. it is: he aha ta te tangata i whakakare ai, mehemea kaore raatou e whakakare ana i o raatou hoa? (im double voweling for macrons.) i know it means something like what can you be proud of if you are not proud of your friends. am i right? |

| 348328 | 2006-09-18 11:47:00 | "The other 2" were well described in John H's post (plus paua) if you scroll far enough up & read the whole thread. | Laura (43) | ||
| 348329 | 2006-09-19 11:13:00 | Something weird has happened in this thread, I'll swear I read through all the posts yesterday and didn't see those earlier ones answering the Qs about shellfish. But why was it resurrected from last year anyway? Martynz |
