New Zealand Tear Jerkers Chapter

Postby Vedette » Mon Mar 02, 2015 11:55 pm

Hey Frank
With all of the Teardrop enthusiasts that are participating here on the Forum from New Zealand.
I would have thought that someone would have started a NZ Tear Jerkers Chapter.
I am sure if you gave Todd a call he would love to have another International Chapter.
Just food for thought??? :thinking:

"With all of the Teardrop enthusiasts that are participating here on the Forum from New Zealand. . . . . . ."

Just out of interest, how many Kiwis are registered on this site? Can anyone tell relatively easily?

If you had a TJ Chapter in NZ and an official Director. Everyone registered on the Tear Jerkers Forum from NZ gets lumped together on a list that can be accessed by the Tear Jerkers Director for NZ.
Someone should step up. :thinking: There is not that much to it! ;)

That would mean poking ones head above the parapet. Getting noticed, right?
No more relative anonymity then? :NC

And that''s why it didn't work over here, apart from the fact that none of us wanted to be Americanised anymore than we already are.

Checking out the Build Journals.........the NZ crew is gaining in numbers every day! :thinking:
And they have the advantage of not being as spread out as we are on this side of the pond. ;)

PS
But Frank seems to have quit talking to me since I suggested this TJ Chapter thing, so maybe there is something I don't know about Kiwis??? :NC

Avians or Humans? Either way, they're pretty laid back, doing their own thing I suppose.
Ooops!. Sorry Brian, Just spotted something you said on another thread, and that you're North North American
and therefore still part of The Commonwealth, and you would know that already. My statement above is therefore, redundant.
I think I'll stop digging & hand in the shovel. . . . . . .

Brian, there is a ground dwelling bird, native to NZ, that is called a Kiwi. Thus the avian or human from Dezprado.

Thanks Paul
Didn't mean to offend anyone with my lack of knowledge! :oops:
But. I had an New Zealander work for me for a year and a half, plus a good friend and a member of our car club.....that were both from NZ and were adamant about being called Kiwi's as opposed to the other mistaken identity?? we commonly make here in Canada????? We don't know what the problem is, nor do we care......we love you all....whether or not you love each other??? :NC

We might be geographically closer but the country is split in the middle by a (very expensive to cross) bit of water
As you will see in the international section there is a couple of NZ members threads.
I will try and get those of us in the bottom half of the country together soon

Quite a few of us belong to a car club already

I currently belong to 4 Car Clubs and am the Director for 2 Chapters of the Tear Jerkers in two different countries.
Guess I am a bit of a joiner or an organizer?? :?
