I'm puzzled. Why do Kiwis call bed linen and towels and so on "Manchester"? It doesn't make much sense. Equally, why "togs" for swimming costumes? Generally, though, they're fairly sensible about the correct use of the English language over here.
It's raining again. Steadily. The water's gushing out of the pipe outside the kitchen window and also off the edge of the roof above my front door. Pretty noisy. But at least I'm warm and cosy inside watching ER.
