Same song, second verse.

[Booklover]

Then it had better not be a national anthem. Nobody can remember more than the first verse: after that every verse is:
Mumble, mumble mumble mumble
Mumble mumble mumble mmmm
*mumbles continue for however long a verse minus 1 line is*
Last line of first verse repeats

[Ebantu the Kararehe]

You are most welcome, O Mighty One.

Here goes. Be prepared for punishment.

Random news: I'm getting a horse! (Teer already knows)
His name is Stanley, he's a 15-16hh chestnut gelding with four white socks and a white blaze. He's beautiful!

Congrats! How often do you ride him?

He's a wee bit grass-affected right now, so I won't be riding him til he's less hyper.

Not everyone relies on this. In New Zealand, basically everyone knows the Maori verse and the first verse, at least, and most people know all the verses. (most of the people in my acquaintance, anyway)

[Ebantu the Kararehe]

I don't. *is guilty*
I do know all of 'Tutira Mai Nga Iwi' though.

XXXX. The Last Continent is a bit different from Ankh-Morpork.

Eh?

Discworld reference. Although EcksEcksEcksEcks or XXXX or Fourecks or the Last Continent, is based on Australia, and I think one of the islands off it is New Zealand?? The national anthem thing is also a Discworld reference.

[Ebantu the Kararehe]

*is still confused*

*draws a picture of a zebra*

[Booklover]

Read Discworld. All 41 books, or just up to The Last Continent.

[Ebantu the Kararehe]

No. I refuse, I'm busy reading Redwall books and LotR

[shisteer of nothing much]

Plus Return of the Temujai and half a dozen other series. Besides, shouldn't there be forty-two books?

[Verdauga]

Why?
