'Struth , 75 pages from whoa to go . I'm sort of hankering for the days when the Muppet show was on TV in the mornings on the weekends :lol: .

Tama , your work spoke , for you are the takata pukenga . I was merely the karere .

Aye ehoa , I have had that honour . It just seems to have worked out that way.
Not much in the way of 'formal learning' tho , the only work I have done at university was with my toolbelt on :D
Other than being schooled in Mau Rakau , I just sorta picked things along the way . Seems that some of those I had a cuppa with were the right ones .

I still have to double check on my memory tho , not wanting to have nga tipuna getting hoha with me :)

PS. Tama , take on an apprentice . One of those switched on youngsters from the Kura Kaupapa Maori .
Teach each other ......

Toka

In the heart of my soul , I would that I had been born in Celtic lands ,

but I was born here , a Celt in Maori land , and my heart is content.
