Sevens!

Well this year I finally went to Wellington's biggest party - the Sevens! I have to say, it was a whole heap more fun than I was anticipating - and everyone literally does dance and scream and yell the whole time! I even found time to enjoy the actual rugby - go Samoa! Unfortunately NZ were absolutely thumped by Fiji in the semi-finals, but I'm sure we'll end up victorious over the course of the series :-)

Adrian and I went with Bastiaan and Pip and we dressed as the people from the Tui ad where they're trying to break into the factory (all except Bas who wore Pip's mum's black 80s cocktail dress - but only on the first day when I didn't have my camera!). I ran into heaps of people there, like my cousin Scott and Adrian's sisters Emilia and Veronika (the pirates in red) - not to mention literally running into all the other people - the place was packed! Excellent costumes though, although the site of grown men dressed as Borat (in the green swimsuit) has scarred me for life I think...
