Oh, I didn’t mean it was any weirder than US folklore. Just stuff I’d never heard before. “Speewah”? As soon as I said the name, Rodd was like, “Crooked Bill”! I obviously need to learn this stuff before I get sworn in. 🙂
Wait. It’s Crooked Mick, isn’t it?
Err, dunno, I’m a visitor here myself. 🙂 (Psssst… I think most of it’s really weird…)
I couldn’t find a page of New Zealand folklore. This is the closest thing. Have Westerners been there long enough to have non-Maori myths?
Dunno – is 170 years long enough? Yes, I suppose we do, but probably that no-one’s thought that it was interesting enough to collect for wikipedia. We’re a very humble modest lot.
Huh? Whatchewmean, weird? 🙂
