An investigation has been ordered after an aged-care worker took a dementia patient to SkyCity Casino - and lost her.
I can just imagine her sliding the poor woman across the Blackjack table, is this jonkey's answer to Aged care?.
As for johnbanks, he took a gamble and lost, you get that at the "High Rollers" table. -
As with all "Once in a Lifetime" things, when it's done there will be "Oh, why didn't we do that... moments.
I thought it could have been fun to rig up an inverter and car battery so the lights could be on and the stereo blaring. And what a topping wheeze to have a dinner party in the moving house. -

Apropos to anything, we found this the other day. Neither of us has a clue where it came from, apart from Auckland Library that is, apparently it was Withdrawn.

constantly wittering on about anything similar (or not) that Labour may have ever done in office,
