Of interest:
1) 'Spacies', as you probably realise, is shorthand for the arcade game 'Space Invaders', but is used in reference to all computer arcade games. Mike, we liked to think, was particularly good at Galaga.
2) The '4 Square' is a chain of superettes - local convenience stores found all over New Zealand.
3) Karen's such a flirt.
4) I wish I could remember who played Auntie Queenie.
