As a 56 year old Kiwi, I can honestly say that I've never heard of a shopping trolley being called a trundler.

Painted fences are a thing here for a reason the intense sun here warps timber badly the paint helps stop that from happening.

[violet-rosepalmer]

We laughed and it was very cool to hear you say the Kiwi “yeah, nah” Mado 😊

You didn't prepare the Marmite and butter ratio properly obviously, it's an art form to nail the correct ratio.

Fairy bread is untoasted bread - it has to be fresh white bread and soft real butter.

As a person from Christchurch NZ, I can assure you "tea" meaning dinner is very common and is easily distinguishable from "tea" meaning drink because the drink usually has the prefix "cuppa" as in "cuppa tea".

Now you know where we are don't be strangers, you're welcome back anytime.

I’ve never called a shopping trolley a trundler I never noticed that sign at the supermarket

Whittakers chocolate is still made with sugar as other brands use palm oil and sweeteners, pride in made in New Zealand products has become a popular thing for us kiwis and we all so appreciate guests coming to nz to experience our true love for life thank you for your love

Love it, one time when I was working night shift, my friends car window was frosted over.
He couldn't be bothered waiting for it to defrost so he drove with his head out the window 😅, scary ride home to say the least

The bird is a probably bell bird and a marmite has to be spread really thinly and is great on buttered toast. A jar will last years. You probably put too much on. It’s like saying you don’t like salt because you poured it on your food.

Painted fences last longer. My farthers fence is 40 years old. Still looks new.

Mado cracks me up with her Irish accent while speaking English and being from Germany.

Fairy bread.. a small child's birthday party staple. White bread and butter with a good layer of sprinkles/ hundreds and thousands/ nonpareils.

[victoriaannebasham]

Whittakers choc is Sooo good because they don't use palm oil unlike Cadbury.

[heathersmiliekiwi]

Lolly cake ingredients: Malt biscuits, butter, condensed milk and Eskimo sweets ( like a hard marshmallow) made into a log and rolled in coconut.

[violetblake]

We found it hard when we immigrated to NZ.People would invite us and say “Bring a plate”???? We assumed that they didn’t have enough empty plates so we brought extras.But” bringing a plate was to contribute food to the meal or supper😝😝😝😝That was usual

[helenlizzystewart]

Thankyou so much guys for being in New Zealand, you have probably enriched so many kiwis who have not actually seen their own country including trails

[johntwemlow]

You forgot to mention hokey pokey icecream!!

[stweedy]
