Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

Bought my tickets to go visit my family in September. Spending that much always freaks me out even though I know I can afford it

Exciting! If you need to apply for an NZ passport, do it now, they used to issue them in a couple of days and now it's a couple of months!

Are you having a nice long visit or just a quick trip? I'm assuming overseas since people don't usually freak out over buying a bus ticket. Usually.

Thanks for the warning. Luckily my passport is good for several years yet. It's gonna be weird going from early spring to early autumn though.

Haha yeah, but autumn can be nicer weather than spring in a lot of places so hopefully you get a weather upgrade.

[–] Ozymati@lemmy.nz 2 points 4 months ago

Yeah should be warmer and drier
