I never thought of doing one but then perhaps that was related to the intensity of the shock I experienced when I realised that my little island/continent had been left off the map. 'Do-it-yourself attitude' huh ... quite frankly, I have always preferred that servants do it for me, borne out by the destruction of our kitchen last night ... I got caught up creating the perfect bread stuffing for roast chicken and afterwards well, the room looked like a lot of busy individuals had done their own thing in a small space. You know, since moving to this side of the world, I've begun to realise just how far New Zealand is from the rest of the world. Hence we became a nation of do-it-yourselfers, I guess...
