Thank you Quick for all your insights and these new knowledge. I really appreciate your work. This takes me back to my days at St. Andrew's with the test Fridays on these proverbs. I was good then, now I am a total idiot. I think my friend mentioned that she bought a book of Tongan proverbs in New Zealand when she was there with her family. I will check to see if she can lent it to me while I am home after my surgery.

Take care Quick and keep everyone in line until I return.

Aloha,

pryn, read somewhere that a Tu'i Tonga back in the day had a canoe named 'Lomipeau' and the canoe's hulls streached from Kao to Tofua.
they were probably sacred islands back in the days of the Tu'i Tonga.
