Capture: Capture One, in reply to JacksonP,
made me chicken out.
I just 'ducked' in for the end of a Chchch one a coupla years back...

Hard News: Democracy Night, in reply to linger,
Mantroll, it's a govern...
...could someone please remind him
that his only mandate on record
= John Banks, a cuppa, and a microphone?What about that three way he had with
Macaw 7 and the head of the IRB, and
wasn't there a cup involved there, too? -
Hard News: Democracy Night, in reply to slarty,
a good long duuump...
Like I say, parallel universe where the normal laws of time and money appear not to exist.
No, no, I'm sure it is an actual perpetual motion funding device... honest!
Much like last years economagical profits and losses of asset 'sales' (dams n stuff) between State owned power companies

Hard News: Democracy Night, in reply to Ross Mason,
How about “Ma Pa” then.
Oh those Mom and Pop investors...

Hard News: When A City Falls, in reply to Emma Hart,
Speaking of ovoids (see below)…
the attached pic is of the Richmond Bowling Club (in my street) which was to have been the site of Chchch’s first PA Great Blend event…
a sad sight now (photo taken yesterday)…Which would be kind of appropriate, because our first ‘leaving the house’ date? Was a screening of Once Were Warriors.
Can’t make an omelette with out breaking eggs, eh?

Hard News: Democracy Night, in reply to BenWilson,
Hark! the Herald angles…
I’m happy for their gift of free mulch for my
garden, most eco-friendly of them.Excellent as fly and mosquito swatters as well
can also be folded into sun hats…
(some rolling and assembly required)When damp can be useful for germinating seeds,
or drily slid under carpet for the insulation properties…Pet Silverfish can be kept alive for yonks also!
Try doing any of the above with an iPad app :- )

Hard News: Democracy Night, in reply to Hebe,
playing the Blues...
...a sign that the National are well into the second-term
arrogance phase of government.That difficult second-album syndrome
can sometimes tear bands apart...
best we can hope for is 'artistic differences',
'substance abuse', 'pilot error' or a sudden
predilection for 'polkas and schottisches'... -
The dye is karst...
Red Flight may not necessarily mean staunch labour voters
Just folks who've been forced from the Red Zones
many of whom now have reason to dislike National...We await the falling chips...
Though I fervently hope our battered city
does not have to bear that new Blue Bruise
in its centre for the next term...Bad enough the tragic haemorrhagic fever
that has engulfed Waimakariri and
wheezes on in Ilam...one hopes it won't kill the host...
National's 48% of three quarters of the voting population
does not (in my opinion) grant Key an overwhelming
mandate to asset strip the nation... -
The Poisson Chalice in Chchch Central...
All I can think of is,
they did put something
in the water for a long time here!Hue 'n' cry...
Chlorine is 'pale green'
guess that's what happens
when ya mix blue and yellow! -
Hard News: Democracy Night, in reply to JacksonP,
political developments...
<RB did ask for photos, innit?>
..and it has got some neck innit
and quite a bit of 'bottle'...
love the inference that Winston
is wireless and no-one's puppet,
that he's one outta the bag
here to sack the system and yet
he may be Parliament's bagman...plus the whole 'Boo' bogeyman thang
- one stroke over par at the hole, indeed...ev'ry pitcher...
