Sat headed to the zoo with two Irish guys I met in the hostel. Hmmmmmm, I’ve decided that I really don’t like Zoos.. It has probably been about 10 years at least since I was last in one.. and I don’t like going with ppl who throw stuff at the animals to make them move. Also.. went into the Kiwi enclosure. Now seeing as these birdies are almost extinct they’ve evolved to be pretty damn shy.. so making noise doesn’t help none. Anyway, not to be seen (but did hear it – I think – odd squawky kinda noise)
After that was time to head into town and go to the fringe festival. Lots of gigs.. there’s a pretty distinctive kiwi music – called Roots music – it’s a cross of reggae and Maori (I think).
John then taught us game number 2. This one is easier to explain. It’s called circles and triangles. Or at least that’s what I call it. Good title no?
So you have a group of ppl, and everyone is given a piece of paper with either a triangle (evil ppl) or circle (good ppl) on it. If it’s up to 8 people in the group there are 2 triangles, and everyone else a circle.. 9 or more it’s 3 triangles.
Now, at the start of the game everyone closes their eyes. Then the triangles open their eyes and identify eachother. Then everyone closes their eyes, and finally everyone opens them again. At which time the triangles know who they are, and each individual knows what they are.. but no circles know eachother.
The aim of the game (it’s simple) is that through questioning eachother the circles have to identify and eliminate (by voting) the triangles. Course the triangles are trying to give false information and vote off the circles.
Trust me, it’s a fun game.
I think.
