  • Hard News: CWC 2015: Contains graphic horror,

    The commentary was pretty crap as well. Listening to them bang on about having to use a different type of headset was painful. Warne and whatshisface were so preoccupied in their own bullshit they didn't even realise the power play had been taken early. I bet India wish they hadn't though!

    God help us all, if we get Banks back with David Hay as his deputy!

  • Hard News: Bad Skillz,

    Thanks Ben. When I walk I do go through the park. As a dedicated user of public transport I do find the MAXX site really clunky. I needed to get a train to Henderson yesterday, so I entered "Britomart" as my starting point and "Henderson" as my destination. I was then asked to define "Britomart" - there were 5 different choices and guess what? They were all the same place i.e. Britomart Place, Auckland Central / Britomart Train Station (Landmark) / Britomart Train Station (Landmark) - just in case you missed it the first time / Britomart Transport Centre (Landmark) and, finally Train Station - Britomart (Stop). WTF - They're all the same place......

  • Flying Nun Moments,

    The first gig of the nationwide Straitjacket (hey I can spell!) Fits and Look Blue Go Purple tour at the Gluepot when the upper North Island was plunged into darkness when the power went out. There goes the cash flow! We managed to get to Dunedin three weeks later, all a bit thinner with a surplus of $21. I loved that tour!
