Wigram huge, I don't think so Emma
I live in Aoraki, about 3.5 hours driving from one end to the otherShould get a woman MP but she is a bit flakey on the dangers of water, cute looking though so that's all right

Well I voted for MMP and doubt that we will go bacj to FFP but I would like another chance at fine tuning the system
MMP while fairer does give parties that got under 5% more power that the loosing party that 35%-40% of the voters supported
It is not a good way to run a country when that percentage of electorate are unhappyWould a prortional give a better result?

The Rochelle Rees "fun" thing is not really a good start to a Labour campaign built around "trust us"
No affiliated to any party..yeah right, pity the facts got in the way of a good story

I really don't need to know this
We are planning our first trip overseas, probably the first of many
And you tell me I can lose my gear in Palmy, forget about ill paid baggage handlers far awayThe golden rule is (so my reading tells me) is never pack something that you might like to see again and try to use your carry on baggage for everything that you might need

So who is being billed for all the photocopying Trev is doing
I believe this is an extremly cunning plan by National to drive Labour's election costs over the limit as they (Labour) release National's policy

Yes, you are correct
I made a mistake it is chery flavoured
My sons bought some for me as I had expressed an interest in cherry flavoured beers, 'cause they sound interesting
They told me that it was last years brew but you have the true facts
For father's day they bought me some lambic so I will try that next
Thank you for the history -
Yes Hadyn
Emmersons JP, it is a limited brew made each winter, last years one had raspberry in it
When I started drinking (legally) old blokes used to drink Stout (Vita Stout?) with a squirt of raspberry in it
This is far superior -
Ah beer
It is amazing how many fine wine makers really like beer
Stuff up at vintage and you have buy a case of fine beer (the wine makers do have fine palates and are picky 'cause that is what you need to be a WM)
Consquently autumn is more a time for beer drinking rather than wine drinking.....well beer after work, a long lunch with some of the wine library is part of the deal for cellar handsRasberry beer, do try last years Emmisons JP well worth the search

Cyclists do have votes but do they pay road tax
That said it seems a no brainer to improve cyclist's options because it would leave the roads with less cars on them and give the car/SUV drivers more targets

I have just read the whole thread and frankly I think (hope) there will be a time when you will remember this as a low point of your blogging life
Bad enough that this sort og thing takes place elsewhere but there is no need to go hunting for dirt
This is just as bad as the vileness that is linked to the PM's husband
Sorry, I expect better of you
