Loggerheads?
It didn't work. I'm still a big-headed baby...
Possibly you may need to log out of PA and log back in again to update - just a thought, I'd imagine there'd be some kinda cache thing going on to save on data traffic - worth a crack.

Cynops synopsis...
a Fire Belly Newt
Ta Sofie. There's a lot to like about Fire Belly Newt's eyes, too
- they have twice as many lives as a cat's eyes!...the Japanese fire belly newt can regenerate its eye lens 18 times over a period of 16 years and retain its structural and functional properties.

Capture: Going Walkabout in Sydney, in reply to JacksonP,
The NSW Mounted Police?
Nah, they looked like swagman (or Pack horse bagman) type horses, blanket rolls and all the rustic gear, dogs tied up nearby...

Next week you can throw off the shackles of the suckling screen and get out and celebrate some kiwi music history.... (well, ok, only if you live in New Plymouth, Whanganui, Palmerston North, Napier or Masterton).
Chris Bourke and Nick Bollinger are embarking on...:...a three-day road trip in the central North Island to share tall stories, sounds and images of New Zealand pop, historic and contemporary: not just ‘Blue Smoke’ and ‘Blue Beat’ but ‘Blue Lady’ and into the wild blue yonder.

Got it covered!
Might have to start a collection of colonnade captures.
working title for that digital column:
Cloister Home...From pillar to post...
Maybe an arcade is a type of colonnade?
Classical arcade: colonnade, gallery, cloister,
loggia, portico, peristyle, stoa.Market forces...
Wallpaper art.
This is at Paddington Market, right?
It was great having that just round the corner (almost)
when we lived in Sydney, just off Elizabeth Street,
on Windsor Street. A great suburb. It was weird
having drunkenly left Auckland the night before
to wake up next to another Windsor Castle....I have another embedded mental image,
of wandering about a block away from
the posh part of George Street, to find an old
area with a coupla horses tied up outside
a classic Aussie pub, magical... (circa 1979) -

Legal beadle...
If we can stop with the personal
abuse of MPs...When they stop abusing their positions and a nation's trust. Since when did NZ political discussion become a satire-free zone?
