Yes at the supermarket I push a shopping trolley and my groceries go in to the boot of my car.

Do you also push a "trolley" when you go to "the shops"?

Lollies is what we call candy, I believe Australia and the UK are the same. So yes if you said that to someone from NZ they'd know what you meant lol!

"Lolly" companies? I assume it comes from lollypop? Were I to say that to someone from NZ, they'd have an idea of what I meant with no need for clarification?
The peanut gallery wants to know! LOL!!!

Nope lol. It's not typically celebrated here, it's become en vogue in the last few years though thanks to lolly (candy) companies exploiting it. I'm sure there'll be a scary movie or two on television though. What are you doing for halloween?

Are you doing anything for Halloween?
Becks wrote:
Nah no specific brand, just high SPF, nothing less than 30. I like neutrogena cos it's not oily and gross lol.

I'm definitely looking forward to the Fall-like weather arriving in Cali...in like four weeks or so. Can't wait for the rainy weather and the cold nights and getting to wear all my giant jackets again. And also get some new boots.
Sucks about the ozone hole over NZ. Do you wear any store brand sunscreen or is there a specific kind that has to be worn if you live under/near an ozone hole?
Guids, can't wait to see that pic if you ever take it. Maybe you can give it to DF's band for their future first album?

Me! I like Spring cos it's not too hot lol. Although it signifies the start of having to wear sunscreen, damned ozone hole right above us and all.
