[funny how apparently selfless the road lobbyists are]
Remember how - earlier this year - the trucking industry successfully lobbied for an increase (again) in the maximum weight, this time from 45 tonnes to 53 tonnes?
Now we're told that this will require the upgrade of 6 sections of the Southern motorway, so I guess said trucking industry will soon be coming forward with the millions of dollars required for this, right?

It's not even true, really. It's just... "World's First Virtual Band"?? Does the phrase "Here we come / Walking down the street" mean nothing to you people?! -
Thus the need for name badges/labels at all Great Blends, with an addendum next time along the lines of Hi, I am able to converse on the following topics.....?
A truly great idea, Geoff; guaranteed to spark connections that otherwise likely would never have happened between people with embarrassingly obscure interests.
PS. I just got a phone, so you're on your own now, bud. ;)
Did any one else note the irony that the actor (Erik Thomson) playing Derek Turner in last night's The Million Dollar Con Man also played Chch property developer David Henderson in We're here to help .
I thought I was watching We're here to help for about six minutes.
I just practised and now everyone thinks I like people. I don't really, except the ones I do.
I like people... except the ones who like Gorillaz. So, only about 10 percent of them then, really.
But Billy Idol's Dancing With Myself, that IS about wanking, right?
Seriously, She bop really is.
