Capture: Spring is Like a Perhaps Hand, in reply to Nora Leggs,
Some sort of hydrangea? The stamen are unusual. Where did you find it?

Hard News: Media3: Whistleblower Season, in reply to TracyMac,
Cameron Whaleoil now that he has been appointed editor of “Truth”.
An inspired choice for the editorship of the esteemed organ; they deserve each other. It could lead to some entertaining and vile scraps in print.
Truth once was the best-paid and laziest gig in New Zealand journalism. It used to pay “dirt money” – a weekly margin – to its journos for the “odium and contempt” of working on the foul rag. Wonder if Slater qualifies.

Tree.
Thanks. I don't do spiders. Or snakes. Or mice. Or pickled beetroot.

Capture: Labour Weekend: Town or Country?, in reply to David Hood,
Nice whites. I have my father’s slide collection and want to scan them in the best possible quality as some are great artefact photos. What are you you using? Any tips?

Nice photo. I have wanted one of these forever but I am not convinced of it flowering in the south. Did yours take seven years to flower, as I have read?.

Spiders! I'm out of here. Let me know when it's safe to come back.

Capture: Labour Weekend: Town or Country?, in reply to Lilith __,
Sea squirt: what an apt name. Them being an animal makes the little horrors even creepier. That pink bald-cat look, yukyukyuk.
Talk of using ‘scungy boys’ for bait piqued my curiosity, so I had to ask
It would. They look gross too. I am beginning to imagine forests of creepiness beneath the sea.

Capture: Labour Weekend: Town or Country?, in reply to Kyle Matthews,
He will have been there when my twins visited . Thanks, to him, to the others, and to the teacher, and school, and the lovely Linda. We needed a safe and beautiful place to regroup, and you all provided it (and I came to know and love brandysnap icecream from a little factory by the port.) That time away meant when the February 22 earthquake happened (epicentre 3km from our house) the boys were so settled that they voted to stay here rather than run. And that decision has led to many good things.
I fell in love with Dunedin, having never spent much time there in my adult life, and Evening Ravensbourne caught the magic.

Hard News: Friday Music: Return of the brothers, in reply to JacksonP,
you haven’t watched this 13.47min version of A Forest yet, then I suggest you do.
I really, really should be at school sports day.
