lineduptheirtoporderandbowled their guests over with an occasion
no-one will forget anytime soon! Married on March2 in Tauranga,their
event featured chocolate bouquets, a doughnutwall,theflowergirland
page-boy arriving in style in a remote-control carandtheirweddingrings
being bowled to them inside a tennis ball.“Carlhadtheboysdress
in Black Cap gear and also
surprised me by singing You’re My
Inspiration as I reached the end of
the garden path,” Donna tells.
“We wanted to have a different
wedding that was relaxed and us,
and it sure was. Itwasperfect!”

CHOMPING ATTHEBIT!
Grandad had his teeth taken out
and was toothless for a while.
Miss Six asked why he didn’t
have any teeth and was cheekily
told the tooth fairy didn’t leave
him any money to buy new ones.
The next week, she saw some
false teeth and begged her nan
to buy them. Poor nan had to
explain they were women’s teeth
and wouldn’t fit Grandad, but
bless her sweet heart!
Shirley,Feilding RELUCTANT HERO
In a special tribute after his
passing, the New Zealand
icon was remembered by his
biographer Alexa Johnston,
who shared exclusive extracts
of her book Sir Edmund
Hillary: An Extraordinary Life,
giving an intimate look at the
man behind the mountain.

PLUMBING THE DEPTHS
My teenage daughter was sweet
on a young apprentice plumber
but was too shy to approach
him. When she went to hospital
for a minor operation, she was
surprised to wake up in recovery
and find he was a patient too.
Afterwards, she sighed to her
gran and me, “He’s such a hunk.
He’s got lovely legs,” then added
wickedly, “I bet he’s got lean
loins!” A few days later, she and
gran spied the young man while

out window shopping. Playing
Cupid, Gran marched up to
him to make small talk. My
daughter soon became
embarrassed though when
Gran said to the young man,
“So, you’re a butcher, eh?”
When he shook his head, she
said, “That’s so strange, I heard
you had lean loins!”

LANGUAGE BARRIER
My family and I emigrated
from England a few months
ago and upon learning that
we were coming over to New
Zealand, Miss Eight exclaimed
loudly, “But then I’ll have to
learn New Zealandish!”
