I don't know about Hipsters, but if the Wgtn peeps are anything like the Auckland peeps, there's an awful lot of erudition around. I just sit quietly. It's better that way.

Hell, we don't even need the Wellingtonista anymore, we can just use the comments thread here. Hey everyone, avoid Pirie Street and the buses that run through the tunnel today cos they're digging it all up.

You look better in the dress than I do, to be fair.

Hadyn Green

Yes there is a very good chance of getting that. Well, at least for that first pic.

As well as voting, we hope you'll all come and party with us on the night! It's only $5 on the door, from 6.30pm at Mighty Mighty on December 3. I'll be wearing a pretty dress, as usual, and we have a metric buttload of spot prizes for you to…
