Pearls before swan…
…at Shambhala, now in an otherworldly Thai
tea garden (really) near the South LibraryIn Ernlea Tce at the end of the dead end st (for cars) opposite South Library – called Swan Lake – it’s where I get my fresh water, they have diverted a lead from their spring out onto the street – I used to play round there as a kid, when it was a run down abandoned mansion with an overgrown lake with a sunken punt in it, magic place – it has scrubbed up nicely…

Words for lost, am I...
Yeah, the P-word has been comprehensively devalued...
Just like 'Vibrancy' in Chchch, which is trotted out by our Great Communicator at the drop of a hat or the opening of a bus stop - in this case it is laughably paired with 'restore' - I hadn't noticed much vibrancy in the inner city even well before the actual shaking started.

a gallimaufry up…
New Press video from inner city taken yesterday (20/10/2011).More on central city demo-looting:
Community House – “workers had stripped the building of all valuables”
and other thefts:
Police recover cathedral chalices – that no one knew were missing!and on the Suburban Red Zone:
Red Zone price challenge proposal scrapped <snap: Merc>
Unsurprisingly Brownlee says: “I’m sorry that in the heat of the moment, pressured, I said something that was not able to be delivered”.
Gerry just keep taking the hits!
while he keeps giving us the shits….re Gerry and his Geodata – I think he may be conflating his early disco days with his delusions of grandeur – and the only word that covers that is – Deodato!
OK WTF TGIF – Get down…
