  • Quake,

    I hope it doesn't become the basis on which threads are created around here :-)

    I don't wanna be a twit either.

    Please, please give us some reporting, or failing that, how about some fucking information!

    Rob.

    LInky yourself .Offered by others and updated for the piece ages ago. Also who said this was reporting? Sorry but this folic acid issue has been in the arena for some time now so surely if you are that interested, couldn't you like oh, I dunno maybe, even do some research and accept this piece for the opinion it may be?

  • Hard News: In the nicest possible way,

    I wonder if it's a simple as Worth ....

    I always spout my distrust but it is because it's National and I don't expect any better.It is the form of that Party.They do have the ability to make me feel treated like we are not important to their operation.I do think it's as simple as, a lot more often than people give credit for.Heh, It aint academia, it's our politicians. When Hide showed cajones with his campaign Worth became meaningless.Some people only want to deal with the high stakes and I thinker that's a bankers game.JMO

    Also Eddie has probably said one part of the truth, which would make this right. If it's a combination of things, then many differing reasons could be correct so this then shows up why it is helpful to know from the horses mouth or it's tail.

    I think it's the combination of all of them. Y'know hot potato.I think the old school Nats are becoming fewer by significance.I think Dr Worth goes against the grain, or at least against the reign.

    There's a bunch of herbs in big pots

    When we moved here we needed removal guys and the biggest truck they had for pot plants. The total count when loaded and then unloaded was 260. Wasn't that rediculous? I THINK NOT! Most are in the ground now and of course many more, Our Puka was a potted one which is why I felt drawn to mention it on the swearing thread when possum showed up and gave it a strip tease.Still, have some large cycads in big wooden planters that builder made so if need be I will replace Puka with one of those. Possum don't seem to eat cycads.

  • Hard News: In the nicest possible way,

    Worth was Minister for internal affairs, questioned on his motives capacity and expenses on his trip to India.It was suggested his interests in India had been clouded with an abuse of his ministerial powers when the trip was supposed to be for a private matter and if that was so, it would be corruption if those he had met over there, suddenly got contracts from the government (and that was hinted at). Then in the House Worth was invited to reveal anything else he may wish to with insinuation that there was indeed more, then his private business goes under investigation by the SFO or police(Sorry cant remember which) but he insists to Key, nothing to worry about, then the rest is where we are at but still noone has been given anything by our PM. Frankly I would like to know,and not so I can gossip.As Lockwood would say, the integrity of the House is important

    Does everybody suspect that Worth was sacked for being an adulterer? I didn't.

    I didn't but I do think getting jiggy on it was rather bad timing for Worth.There has been a constant badgering in the House since his return from India, which could be a big can o' worms but I am not speculating with the Big G in this house.;)

    I just have to reiterate how much I love your house. You took good bones and made it completely and utterly yours.

    Oh shucks thank you Jackie. I must admit without the other halfs unlimited talents ;) ;), I would probably have 2 mortgages.The balance is good too, I'll say "you know what I'd like..." he says "I can do that" I say "when?" he says "next year" but if something breaks he fix immediately. I paint lots so if I want to change the colour of a room, I do.

    And because I want to make a mess in the garden and buy lots of plants and not have someone sell from under me just when the lemon tree is starting to make lemons.

    Get a herb garden(pots or ground) handy to your kitchen and you are set for the dinner parties.The first hole dug is always the most satisfying because it's yours :)
