  • Field Theory: Good shot old chap,

    Lowering the Tone Since November 2006, apparently.

    Oh, I've been doing it much longer than that....

    I think some people haven't seen enough of Richard Kahui

    I for one have not seen enough of him.

    And when New Zealanders caddy it?

  • Hard News: Because They Could,

    Ah, one of my favourite whimsical names in American TV credits. (I'm also pretty fond of 'Harley Tat', who worked on Blind Date.)

    Fabiomassimo Dell'Orco from Rome. Thuliso Dingwall from The Wire.

    Yeah, but you can't beat this guy.

  • Up Front: The Classics Are Rubbish Too,

    can two gingas save the world?

    Everything always comes back to the gingas with you, doesn't it, Che.

    Oh hey, me too, but hardly anyone else I know has heard of it.

    Now I'm wondering who I lent my copy to, so I can steal it back and re-read it.

  • Up Front: The Classics Are Rubbish Too,

    If I were an influential NZ director/producer specialising in fantasy epics, I'd be in quiet negotiations with Maurice Gee over the rights for that one.

    Well, they're doing Under the Mountain, so O can't be far behind.

  • Up Front: The Classics Are Rubbish Too,

    return indoors, put feet up, and read harry potter. (it is after all an entry-level drug).

    Confession time. I've just read all 7 Harry Potters, in about 3 weeks. I'd resisted them before, because,w ell, I like to be contrary (see also: refuses to buy IPod.)

    I'm now having trouble returning to anything worthy. I actually put down Plumb last night, and started to re-read The Order of the Phoenix.

    Che? Help. But you better leave Mr Darcy alone.

  • Field Theory: Glad I missed that one,

    Richie McCaw made the difference between Wellington drubbing the Cantabs and the actual result. He was awesome.

    Really? Cos all I've heard is what a big cheater he is, and how Canterbury don't even try to play rugby etc etc etc.

    And I haven't even gloated.

  • Field Theory: This one's for Don,

    : in a season of going to Canterbury and Crusaders matches - I really haven't seen evidence of a feral crowd...

    Yes. And it's not like you don't get bad behaviour at other stadiums.

    Like the man at the Springbok test at the Caketin, who, when he heard a young girl screaming, asked loudly if there were a bunch of English rugby players around, and if there was, could they shut her up.

  • Field Theory: This one's for Don,

    TRAITOR!

    I never said I was one of them Hadyn. (Except that I am.)

    And there's just only so many times one can virulently defend a province that people only dislike because it is successful. You have to help the haters out a little.

    Well, 4000 at the semi final was pathetic.

    Yeah, I can't really defend them on that. Especially when the final was likely to be in Wellington. Although, really, when you host as many finals as Lancaster Park does....
