Southerly: Continuing After A Short Interruption, in reply to
I’m wondering if the milk somehow induced a sort of body-wide inflammation, which made slight PF (that was hardly noticable) into agonizing affliction.
Sounds awful but probable. I have been experimenting over the last few months with a few weeks of dairy-free, gluten-free, meat-free. It has been surprising to find that dairy-free has had the biggest effect on a range of symptoms. It was also the hardest: no cheese! I have gone back to my old reasonably healthy promiscuous diet and am reluctantly deciding my body don't like dairy (Sob. No cheese!).

(and it’s starting to look like the govt may have created most of the furore about ‘Botulismilk’ etc – another own goal?)
They're going botulistic?

I can see Br’er Key grinning, gloating –
“ta baby, for throwing me in the Brierley Patch!
It’s been fun, sell sell, sell!”NB: commissar-orations extended, if offence given
;- )Oooh you're good Ian!
The Commissar is growling in the background that normal show trials will be resumed as soon as the Great Town Hall of the People has been restored. He don't take offence: he makes lists. -

Key’s latest spout-out is reflecting his increasing transition from “smile & wave” to “don’t you worry about that!”
Joh Key?

They did say the suspension had taken a hammering on rut, hole and bump-filled roads.
I'm sick of buying tyres. We have a win: the road cones have disappeared on the block from the St Martins roundabout to the supermarket. First time since February 2011 that the road is not like a riverbed. I think its another year to 18 months before it's worth buying a decent car round here.

From Greg: No. I am a commisar, not a style guide ... I could just smell trouble with that term and it was the Romney gaffe that was bunting at the verges of me memory banks.Be warned young man: here be dragons.

Words commissar says the term “tar baby” is loaded for Maori, so I must not use it. Okay, sorry for any offence that I may have caused. Substitute “big problem”.

Meanwhile, pursuing my grumping, why is our city council – a dysfunctional lot who maintain zero public confidence – making massive decisions like whether to repair the Town Hall and building a new $89m central library, among others, in the dying days of an administration.
Surely that should be left to a council with a mandate: ie the next one.
Or is Bob Parker cooking up a tar baby or three for the next mayor and beyond?
