Bollocks to Banksie, I say.
That's 2 at least :) I rather like "Bollocks to Banksie" as a slogan, or a protest banner.

Heh, no matter where you go, there they are.Must admit tho', many accents here are interesting to listen to, now if I could just figure out what they are saying ;)

It's Takahe not Takehe,
Phew! (wipes sweat from brow) Thank Christ it aint the "H" that is at issue.

Whereas "wanga" is just impolite.
Bit like Laws then ?

Wanganui - and I will give it the current name until it is officially changed - is very strong on the 'h' issue and it isn't in favour!
In the words of someone up a few posts (oh hang on, it was you Emily) " Oh get over it!"

(bloody AK sybarites, dont even think about wopwop friends starving to death in Big O ec etc etc)

You see, that's why I dislike the idea of a ranked list - and did my humble best to disrail it.
Gotta agree with you there Islander.I find pleasure in liquorice all sorts :)
o, we can only dream! - bird night & dawn chorus that used to be
Heard a sad story about the Liar /lyre bird
Word ? World.That wasn't me :) -
On the other hand, speaking of PA social type things, it's the holidays coming up and I have a hankering to see my PA buddies at a certain neighbourhood bar. With rum. Email me if you too have this hankering.
Oh Jackie, wish I could :( Wont be back until October. London is a bit far to get to the pub from. Tell you what, Cutty Sark Pub in Greenwich is mighty perdy and oh so comfortable if you wanna meet me there one night next week. We could sit outside and look across the water at the 02 Dome.:)

There are a bunch of them outside now making a hell of a racket...
That's what makes them so special. Crazy little buggers.
This morning (GMT) there are Crows attached to a roof behind our place and a plague of Homing Pigeons on the roof next door. I'll have the Tui thanks :) -
On Monday, Wallace and I hosted a Back Benches Super City Special at the Northern Steamship Co here in Auckland.
Wish I were there.
So that was Monday. On Tuesday, I'm delighted to announce, my darling (and some would say, long-suffering) Rebecca agreed to marry me. Which was nice,
May you have many happy years together :)
Banks has come back more humble (or at least has been convinced to talk less) and kept his head down for the most part. "He get things done" tends to be what my friends tell me, and whether this is true or just a great line in spin, that's what will win him votes.
Aw, now that's where I feel let down. Can your friends (whom I would like to believe are intelligent) honestly explain just what he has done for Auckland and would your friends honestly give him another vote, or is it that we (as Aucklanders) don't know of anyone else worthy of such a position?
