Becoming Mrs Argos

What stared out as a family sailing adventure around Australia has changed somewhat! Now its mum and the kids (now aged 17 and almost 15) working it out for themselves while cruising the Queensland coast!

Learning Kiwi!

17 April 2013
Sue Watt
If I could be a fly on the wall of Kwela right now I am pretty sure I would be able to hear the boys practising their Kiwi!

I recon the conversation would go something like this,


‘I’m glad we got to see Sue, Erina and Liam when we were in Milburn, huh bro?’

‘Oh yes, and it was great that they pecked some extra warm clothes for you, right bro?’

‘Oh yep, bro, but it was sad when we lift and they lift too.’

‘Hey bro, when we get to Auckland will we have to get sprayed with pissed-aside like when you land in an ear plane?’

‘Nuh bro, I don’t think so, they don’t use guess on yachts, they check if we have any pits on board, chucks and beers and things like that.
But we will need to find a mcKennock as soon as we arrive, to look at the injin.’

‘Oh well bro, hope we can get a good feed of fush and chups or maybe some fitter cheney – its been a long time at sea!’

‘Its going to be so lovely to get there, what are you most looking forward to bro?’

‘Oh the fresh ear, maybe a sux peck of beer.'

‘So when we get to Auckland harbour, are there any brudges to go under?’

‘Oh bro, I think there might be sex – or siven – not quite sure.’



Yes they sure are getting close…..

If you don't understand any of the Kiwi lingo, message me and I'll translate for you!
