Kiarrrrrgg
This story is inspired by Alan's recent recount of a digger story.
One day, when I was young and footloose and fancy free, I was walking down Wadestown hill on the way to university.
I chap in a digger called out "hello!" to which I replied "kiarrrggg".
I was very very embarassed. The reason I came out with such an unusual salutation? At the time I usually greeted people with a friendly "kia ora", but mid-word I realised that in fact I was only going to appear like a silly, middle-class, white girl from Wadestown. So I tried to say "gidday" instead.
I still feel quite a severe cringe when I remember that day.
