    guess if Key had decided not to go then you'd be moaning about the rank amateur who was more interested in showboating at home than representing the interests of the country aboard,

    Actually I wouldn't. I would however ,be interested in him and the rest of the National Party (remember them) showing some interest in the immediate domestic confidence building that he (Key) so carefully painted as an issue needing attention. Or , will NZ be communicating by Video Conference? Also for all who thought Peters was a disaster, McCully looks like fun for Foreign affairs, not.

    So Dunne gets what he already had, plus an agreement to listen to what he's got to say re income splitting. Thrilling ;)

    Except that it ain't in the fine print.

    I have been trying to read the fine print also, regarding these agreements, and I still don't feel confident to say something nice, but it's not about me.I have tried burying my head in quicksand, I have a sandpit theory somewhere on a thread and so far I don't feel like the stoopid one. Associate this ,that , minister of positions I haven't heard of before and a hurry to sign so Key gets to Peru and onto visit an "old friend" on our expense . I don't think so. It's quick ,so it can't be scrutinised. I see how Key got the name "The Smiling Assassin"

  • Island Life: The Art of the Deal,

    Is the new Associate Minister of Corrections, Pita Sharples, going to vote for this?

    I think they agreed to give confidence and supply on "The first 100 days" or anything National campaigned on to get elected which was why they put that reminder at the bottom of the PDF. Now that National need more bureaucrats they decide they may have got their numbers wrong on that one also.

    Nor do I know why I should be expected to use human-readable syntax. Apparently.

    Yes, my dog seems to have no problem :)

    I told myself to shut up and take a bike ride. I discovered that there is, for the moment, an enormous sandhill on Pt Chev beach. We now heading down to frolic on it as a family.

    Yes, back and forth in the garden is where I choose to go between posts but I imagine the sandhill will be spread as it was probably intended to be on Monday :) Watch out for those oyster shells.Nature and nurture, somehow, when the sun shines, all feels good outdoors.

    Both Sunday gossip columnists have been doing this sort of thing for a while. I'm not aware of any other MP it happens to.

    That's why I don't go there because frankly if they can't say something nice.....:) Also the cones would have been put there for her so they could get their facts right before they mouth off with their collagen bloated lips. And if that isn't true, they can see how it feels. Good wishes for Judith.

    To the likes of Mary W, Che and James Liddell (hi James :)I would like to offer my heart felt thanks for a job well done. I am sure it ain't easy to work in an environment that is never secure, and always in the background but I wish you all the best for reemployment in a tight field.
