Taupo or Tow-pour as I have recently learnt is the correct pronunciation.
Tow the boat & pour the wine!
Fits perfectly!
This sign was put up specially for the Ironman competition but there has been suggestions that it fits beautifully & should stay, I think I agree.
Three good things:
1. Back to a very tidy house & B&B money in the drawer!
2. I managed to last until 8pm last night before I went to bed.
3. Lovely to see family again.
I refuse to say Taupo that way - its always been Tau poh and why should we change! Like some say Oh Ah Maru for our town instead of Omaru! Good to hear you are home safely!
Looks like it should stay to me... you will be correcting us on our pronounciation of Maori words... good to hear all was in order at home .. be your own bed was good,.,
