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?

      Unfortunately the next one isn’t until August, but I did manage to grab some stuff. I picked up Te Rā by Alien Weaponry, I couldn’t resist after they came third in the global Lemmyvision competition 😆

      I don’t know that really mellow alt is my thing in general, though I’d listen in the right context. I’m more into 90s rock or adjacent, though enjoy specific songs from a wide range of genres.

              I didn’t, but they are from Northland, think you can let them know next time you pop around for a cuppa?

                This being NZ I have driven behind their van a couple of times. I guess if I see it again we should start madly flashing the headlights and signalling them to stop so I can share the good news.
