Slashing Red Tape on housing! (?) TV 1 & 3 seemed to have the same reporter on this item.
So far the only concrete task stated was by Keith Hay Homes on the 'Savings' builders would make on not using Double Glasing.
Those 'Savings' are passed onto the occupier through extra power required for the extra heating replacing the heat which is lost and the increased hospitalisations for those who can't afford to heat.
Straight forward PIMs go through in 10mins. So a standard should be able to be worked out.
We're still discovering the last batch of Cowboys work - Leaky Schools etc. Any change is too soon.
Central Govt seems to be play free & loose with District Council functions & removing streams of revenue. Which DCs have been running a surplus of late?
But what was that B'shit the MasterBuilders dude was saying about this would stop chippies going to Oz?

Actually finding Steinlager to be very similar to Montis NZ Lager.
Willing to accept it may have been my abstinence from the drink that means I'm less tolerant of 2nd rate largers.
Must get to The Dux de Lux or Twisted Hop soon.

Disappointing rather than unpleasant. Happy to keep that as a personal taste thing, but certainly not a recommendation.
I am puzzeled as to what Int Beers your comparing it to.
Bud US or CZ doesn't fit, neither Heino or Stella. To my taste anyway.The bottle though is really nice, a cross between a coke bottle & a crown lager bottle. The fern is a great touch but I'ld lose the black lable.

Well, beer is beer.

Monteith's New Zealand Lager - The new Vanilla Coke of beers, drinkable and (hopefully) forgettable. A metalic after taste that was really, urrgh.
I should have thought twice when ending Lent with the new Monteith's Lager priced at $18.90 a doz compared to SteinLager Pure at $25 a doz.
At $18.90 it's overpriced and should try to compete with Flame Beer.
Wondering what was ment by International Beers in your commentary Russell - mayby the dreaded Snow Flake Beer only sold at the dodgyest of bars in the 90s?
DB have dropped some marketing clangers like banning CD raincoats at Lancaster Park - so kids got soaked then caught a cold and the CD branding wasn't visible on TV any way - so why make a fuss.
What ever the marketing decisions they're cocked up the beer has always been good, but not this time.I'ld drink it if it's free, there is nothing else, and it was served at a temp just a above freezing on a hot day.
Last night we had a tasting, put it to the back of the fridge and drunk everything else first.

Sofie - Right or Wrong? How about a valid POV.
Fair question by Duncan but playing himself as the caped crusader is as annoying as his forward hunch stance he takes to avoid (I presume) showing his double chin.

After being disqualified from Nationals and having to give my medal back for 'cheating' I decided rowing wasn't my favourite sport.
On leaving school and moving towns and joined up at the surf club and their Surf Boat crew.
It was with total distrust and disbelief I found out that my speedos were not only worn in the style of a G-string but I had to slap 'easy ass' (aqueous cream) on my cheeks for a smooth ride.
Had a ball & we never won unless our bowman was sick on the beach from the excesses of the night before.
I think we have the last recorded surf boat rescue back in the early 90s.

I'm reinventing the walkshort & sandles as we speak. Topped off with poloshirt and a panama hat.
Inevitable this look is derided as too casual by a womyn in a tee shirt.

'Rich Prick' - T-shirt
I'm sure it would be worn with pride at the golf clubs around the country.

Key did well with dodging the Roger Douglas bullet last night.
Act on the otherhand - can they poll over 5%?
And if not will an electorate back Rodney & his Party Pill Party?Could be an up set.
