I’m about to climb on a plane and head to one of my favourite New Zealand cities. Please, if I know you but I’ve never seen your face before, do come up and introduce yourself, I’d love to meet you all in the flesh.
And, once again, if I may be so bold, if you are brave enough to go up and say hello, you will be meeting one of the sweetest people. EVAH.

Oh. Dear. So hypothetically speaking, one could be accused of something that one does not remember, and only security footage shows that that accusation cannot be substantiated, and so one might, concievably, be so cowed that one admits to a lesser something, which one may or may not have done. Really? All very much best left alone.

Oh, and Emma, maybe the next book should be launched at at the Civic?
Both venerable ladies with rather stunning frontages - highly appropriate.

I'm in two minds about all this. Make that three. Part of me is disturbed that so many have jumped to the defence of someone, who, without to put too fine a point on it, appears to have shoved a girl's face in his crotch rather forcibly. And another part of me agrees with those who say that this is a storm in a teacup, and that if the chap involved wasn't a "celebrity" the papers wouldn't have bothered reporting this. There's also a part of me that doubts there is anyone famous enough in NZ for this to affect the international reputation of.

Now I get to see some of you thrice in one week. Outstanding!
Isn't it? Safety in numbers, for me.

He hasn't, Sacha. But stranger things have happened. Far stranger.

Guess what Sofie? Ian will venture out........

OMG, as the youngsters say, Malcolm. That would be awesome! Count me in!

I second that, Malcolm. I have always loved the Civic. One of the best concerts I ever went to was there - Dobbyn, Finn and Runga - and I've seen countless films and performances there, over the years. It has such an interesting history. What a great place it must be to work.

One of the most meaningful performances I have been to was Breaks Co-op at the Bruce Mason theatre. They were playing support to Goldenhorse at the time. And yes I'm biased because Hamish is my brother. But one of the loveliest moments of my life was when Hamish rapped the song Sound Advice and dedicated it to my father, who had died only a few months previously. Why was that special? Because the main line of the rap is "You'll never know how much I miss you." Gold, personally, and pure. It meant alot to all of us.
