since when dad was alive sitting through and entire film was impossible for him, we always used to make sure to book aisle seats. But that's not something you can easily do if you want to book your tickets early the only way to 'choose' your seats is if you wait till counter bookings open and even then you have to be really organized at the ticket counter.
On the late starting films and needing to leave early. Festival used to (and I'm sure they still) do go out of their way to try and hold a screening if they know loads of people have booked to another film that for some reason has run late. It does create a bit of a domino sometimes but they do that so people don't miss out. -
cucpakes are over, it's all about the macaron now

I like to think i live in a country where the police are wonderful and they are serving the community and are there to make us all feel safer. This does the opposite.

Personally am looking forward to the wellington waterfront being all lit up with pretty lights and images I'm also sorely tempted to enjoy the winter version of Pukekura Park lit up by night.

It might seem like whinging, but from my perspective, I want to know how in 2011 NZ is numbering up against statements made ages ago like -
85,000 visitors expected from overseas
the world's largest sporting event of 2011
MEDs forecast for $500 million into the economy
IRB's forecast of $2 billion into the economy
Reserve bank's of 700 million into the economywere those crazy pie in the sky? are they realistic? nobody in the last 12 months seems to be prepared to give a running update on those forecasts from 2008.
So for me it's these unknown numbers and expectations I hate
Then what is with all these additional costs that we keep hearing about (maybe they were not additional costs but planned for long ago)
example : even if all the tickets are sold it is still going to cost money. (is this even true?)the rugby itself, I have no problems with, i think it's a little arrogant to look down on sport fans, or fans of something not deemed hip and cool.
I love the 7s in wellington and a big huge street party is grand. I had fun when the lions were on tour and right now i think NZ could do with some fun.

john Campbell on tv last night was very excited about the Wales vs Samoa game in Hamilton.
I think the reason everyone is grumpy is becuase the closer we get to the date, we find out how much more it's costing financially, which is the opposite of how it was pitched to NZ

I would like to sponsor megan on a megan/emma/bart drunk shopping trip in auckland. As long as it's tweeted

here's the thing for all the bad stories about tower you'll get the same for other insurance companies. I think vero is the one trying to weasel out of business interruption insurance payouts for anyone in the cbd

oh david, this is wrong, so very very wrong and so scary.
insurance companies, they really know how to screw you at times, and it's always when you are at your most vulnerable
