Monster Zero Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 I'm drinking a Coke Zero now? And I had some beer on Friday night These are suitable alternatives to water, right?Nae really, still got caffeine in it...and so remains a diuretic...whether the liquid content is sufficient to counter-act the caffeine-instigated peeing, feck knows....why can't you just drink water? Tried fizzy water with a dash of Ribena? right fine... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of volcanic geothermal weirdness and Maori culture (worth seeking out the less tourist-y things on offer, hangi feasts are pretty decent though). Only things is that it does take a wee while to get used to the sulphur smell.A lot of the coastline on the East is pretty nice too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Is the 727 Jet bus usually on time during rush hour? I am considering trying it instead of the train, but I am not keen if it will make me late for work more often than not. Thinking of getting the 7:40 bus, which should get to the airport in half an hour, in theory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have recently been getting the 8.00 and I'm at the airport by 8.30. Where about do you work? Is it close to the stop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaaakkkeee Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 If I get the 7.40 I normally get to work by half 8. That's with a 15 minute walk. Gypsum, I miss you on the 7.40. Xxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Work starts at 8:30, but ideally I'd like to be in a bit earlier. That way I could leave earlier and catch the 5pm bus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsum_Fantastic Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Get the 7.20 to make sure or just say fuck it and get the 7.40. Jake will sit next to you and stare at you though. Jake my boss isn't in so I can get away with being late at the minute. After that I'm on my motorbike so Jan will have to take my place in your heart.

Jaaakkkeee Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 I normally just sit in a world of my own on the bus. Headphones on, coffee in hand. Dreading what comes next. Hoping there's roadworks or a crash somewhere. Hoping. Maybe someone died. Maybe, if I'm lucky, the bus driver might take an impromptu break.

Perfect weather for a hat/t-shirt combo. And the wee spittle of rain was welcomed when I felt a bit of sweat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
