There seems to be a lot of interest in that down your way, some of the most interesting folks came from Wellington when I was looking into that stuff before I entered my straight, suburban, married with 2.3 kids phase :P

I'm a student at Victoria uni in Wellington, doing law. I have 8 fish tanks (but 2 are tiny, so don't count :oops: ). I spend disgusting amounts of time on the internet - in fact, I got an iPhone so I can spend more time on there!!! I'm a bit of a geek, but like to pretend I'm cool in my own head.
