For any of you who first heard about TwiKiwi on Facebook - bad news. My account (Iheart Fiftyshades) has been disabled due to it being 'fake' and me 'impersonating' someone else. Do they not know that Fifty is real? Hello? So yeah, I'm not on FB anymore.... and there's no way I'm outing myself by using my RL Facebook account to publicise the blog! (I'm comfortable with my addiction, but not that comfortable).
Before I get into the good shit - the twi-gossip, Rob, fan fiction, Rob, Breaking Dawn news, Rob.... Ahem. Yeah. There's a couple of things I wanted to tell you a couple of things about kiwis before I go any further into the blogosphere.
The term 'kiwi' gets used pretty widely around these parts. I thought now was as good a time as any to tell you what a kiwi actually is.

| The little brown kiwi... aww! |
This little fella is our national bird - the kiwi. Hence the image on my blog banner. He's a little nocturnal bird who is endangered and very scarcely seen. I'm going on a hiking trip in about six weeks to see some wild kiwi and I'm super excited!
The term 'kiwi' is also often used to describe these:
 |
| Kiwifruit. Mmmm! |
In New Zealand, these little fuzzy pieces of goodness are called kiwifruit. I know they're commonly known as 'kiwis' elsewhere in the world but I really didn't want you to think I'd named my blog after a fruit!
The locals around here are commonly referred to as 'kiwis' too, hence, I'm the TwiKiwi. And damn proud of it!

Just had to throw this pic in because it's so fucking beautiful. Rest assured, it's not all this awesome, but yeah, I bloody love this country. Righto, enough of that. Here's a quick shot of the real reason we're here, cos I'm not sure I can get through a post without one:

| Hey kiwi, wanna come hang out on this super-comfy hammock with me? |
Oh. Hells. Yeah. I. Do.
