I have Jandal marks on my feet.
Jake too is refusing to wear pants
Bloody onehunga weed!!!!!
salads!!!
Barbeques.... or if the neighbours are having one - the smell of burning sausages.
drinking beer outside in the evening with good friends.
ice cream in a cone on the beach!
eating half a ton of sand with said ice cream
as for that tar, me and my friend Tam spent hours popping tar bubbles every summer, and being scrubbed with kerosene in the evening and yelled at!

My scarily white legs making an appearance on the streets of Wellington. (Don't worry - I have a comeback sorted for anyone who dares to comment.  )
Hannah playing happily with the hose and her paddling pool and me not actually minding if I get a little soaked in the process

I have been getting my legs waxed for nearly 10 years now. No hairs on the back of my legs and now patchy on the front. So hanging out for the next few years when they will all be gone.

meow - we're not personally going to any festivals and i don't really know of any around here, i mean, i know there are some but i don't know about them. i'll ask my mum, she'd know more. what sort of festivals are you looking for, my mum will know about all the folk festivals and stuff like that.
on new years eve i think there's the cusp which is family orientated, it's in trafalgar park and i think it's about $5. there's often alot of teenagers who go there though, even though there's a glass and alcohol ban.
i'll ask my mum about other festivals and get back to you.
