  • Hard News: The Minister's Brain Has Exploded,

    Good to see those involved take it on the chin both Len and the Minister and big ups for Len not allowing it to become an insult fest

  • Field Theory: How's that working out for…, in reply to Islander,

    I know it is the second time in a couple of weeks that I have offered you un-asked for health advice but
    Have you tried deer velvet, I use it and have had very positive results, there are side effects (it seems it is true what oriental men say about it) but I doubt they would worry you :-)
    Almost total relief from joint pain is worth just about anything especially with the Whitebait season coming round

  • Field Theory: How's that working out for…,

    Nice editorial in the Timaru Herald suggesting that if it had been asking for abstinence from booze the whole dam thing would make some sense

    Edgy, I don't think so
    Do these drop kicks not know what rubber rings (blue or red) really mean in NZ?
    Hint; they are used for emasculation, not a good way to be facing a RWC at home!

  • Hard News: When the Weather is the News,

    The only good thing about the snow is seeing the joy that people further North have had with its arrival
    Down here not so much joy apart from the first glimpse out the window
    The other good news from a Whitebaits point of view is although the season has started not may people will be bothering them

  • Hard News: London's Burning, in reply to Islander,

    Got to say Islander that comes across as creepy, maybe you would like to re-write the whole thing

  • Field Theory: Me and Paul, brewing up a storm,

    I notice a similar scene amongst the winemakers that I know, quite few make beer or bread or at least sourdough

  • Field Theory: All Blacks v South Africa…, in reply to Steve Barnes,

    Remind me again why God gave us hands, so we can keep them in our pockets while we kick a ball, these seem to be designed for grappling etc rather than that!

  • Hard News: An open thread while I'm down…, in reply to Islander,

    I hear what you are saying Islander and if it feels right for you that is ok
    But let me give my wife's experience, her difference is that her mother had breast cancer and survived another 15 years so because of the risk she has been have mamograms for some years. This time last year a very small lump was detected, it has been removed she had a brief burst of radiation and now has been clear for a year
    That of course may not be the end of it so she has my full encouragement to keep having X-rays despite the down sides you mention

    And although it is your decision I would urge you to reconsider your position

  • Hard News: Vanilla Buffalo Yoghurt,

    Have to say there is something mildly funny about Russell stuffing his back when lifting his loot bag, perhaps this could be used as a defination of gourmand as against gourmet
    On the other hand stuffed backs are only funny when it involves someone else, they are serious, so look after your self Russell
