Hilary and Sacha, you are right on the money! It's an absolutely hopeless situation.

Hi Russell,
I totally agree. Well written as always. I little worrying however is the fact that you mention Leighton Smith. I can't imagine that you would listen to him as he would rot the brain of any semi intelligent human being. I presume therefore that his comments were reported to you.
Cheers Fraser

Great stuff Graham. Where do you get the time?

Ohh I almost forgot...
I also enjoy reading the guy who sounds like Russell Brown. Bill Ralston I think his name is.

As a Listener subscriber, it continues to bother me that they stopped identifying who wrote the editorials. Editorials are opinion and I want to know who's opinion it is please.
More positively I'm pleased that the Listener has added more pages to their letters to the Editor. They are usually the first things I read.

Small point - the Boiler Room is no more. Sold and demolished...

Kyle,
seeing your comment sets me wondering if the Canadian's took their longboards to Dunedin for an attempt on Baldwin Street?
That would be a challenge.
Perhaps you could attach a bungie cord at the top of the road to arrest your sudden descent?
But then the board would become a dangerous missile. Gaffer tape to stop that?
A few Heinekens first and chucks away...

Interesting.
I'd been told that 'party central' was to satisfy Heineken. As sponsors their name would be obviously distanced from any potentially damaging debate.
It seemed to make sense...

I'm with Michael Stevens here - and probably even older!
Late in January I enjoyed a fabulous weeks holiday up North of Whangarei staying in a friends bach. It was great, a deserted little holiday community on a gorgeous horse shoe bay with everyone back at work and the weather finally behaving. It was spectacular.
All except for one blot on the landscape. Up on the headland overlooking the bay and the Pa site was the ugliest monstrosity of a house you can imagine. It may have blended in at Omaha but it was totally out of place in Northland. The crowning obscenity on this abomination was at the top of each facade were plastered huge anchors!
I thought perhaps a wealthy American shipping magnate had retired to the property? But no, it's Murray McCully's bach!

I believe that only applies to those of established standing doesn't it?
Absolutely right Sacha...
