Hey! Has anyone else heard about the following:

Come and join “Compassionate Steps : Walk for the Animals’” across Napier town centre on the 19th of April. The march will culminate at Napier’s Soundshell where there will be speakers, stalls, music and vegan food - to highlight the plight of the VARC beagles and demand a ban on scientific research using cats and dogs.
All animal lovers and their families, including the family pooch, are encouraged to join in on the walk! Guest speaker Green MP Sue Kedgley will speak of the secrecy of animal research in New Zealand. SAFE has called on the Minister responsible for animal welfare to place an immediate moratorium on all current beagle research and is demanding a ban on the use of companion animals for research purposes.

STARTS 1pm, Saturday, 19 April 2008 at the Soundshell, Marine Parade, Napier. See you there! There will be a free concert after the walk.

I can't believe I didn't hear about this! I live so close to Napier. I would definitely have gone if I'd known. =[

I live in New Zealand...Where on earth do they sell soy cheese?!!

Hi I'm from New Zealand too, and I live near a few organic stores in Wellington and they all sell soy cheese

All Blacks lost to SA. :lol:

...I mean, this is a terrible loss! The All Blacks are the best team ever! (Of course you don't have to win competitions to be the best...)

^^ yes but I win with my Prozac shares , the share price in Prozac in NZ have just increased .

:up:

Yet, NZ still loses, because a lot of Kiwis take rugby far too seriously.

How did it go Cat ....I have always had time for Sue Kedgley

Aw do you know what I never ended up going.. my friend did though!!! And it went really well. I do wish I had gone with her but I think I had work or something I cant quite remember now
:dizzy:

Dont you sleep ....

I do sleep... I just happened to have been sidetracked by a friend when I came to turn off the computer and ended up talking to him until 3am. Then the next night I stayed up until gone 5am watching movies with a friend. :lol:

So you sleep during the day then :)

Nope. I hate staying in bed in the mornings. Even staying up until 3-5am I was up just after 10am... Then next week I'll be back to getting up at 7-7.30am for school. =[ 8-9am, that's a nice getting up time.

Its good to see some kiwi veges on board :pibo: Im in auckland its OK but I love wellington that place is funky and fine. I actually wanna move there once I get a job and save up. I checked out one cafe while I was there on holiday for the rock2wellington festival. They had a cafe that sold this vegan carrot cake it was nice. I saw alot of BK but thats ok I should of checked out some of the resturants although I was fairly broke that day

I used to live in Titahi Bay my whole life though we moved to Ngaio in Wellington last April, and there's a vegan resturant I like in Wellington called Aunty Menas that's on Cuba Street.

I wish I'd been able to go to rock2wellington. My boyfriend did but I missed out. Grrr.
I'll have to look out for Aunty Menas next time I'm in Wellington. Sadly Hawkes Bay doesn't seem to have any veg*n restaurants.

National Vegetarian Day here, guys. =D!

Cool, I'll celebrate by spending 95% of the rest of my day on the many, many different internet forums I belong to.

No it's not, NZ's best kept secret is that John Key got bitten by a radio-active werewolf when he was 17 and as a result he's a 'wolf in John's clothing'.

With red stars and a 'Union Jack' to boot :ymca:

I had heard something about it the day before, then was reminded when the girl who took our order at Breakers yesterday mentioned it when i ordered a veggie meal. =D
Yum, Breakers two days in a row.

So, what happens if we get bitten by John Key?
