  • Cracker: Strike Nine (and counting),

    His story repeating?
    from that Garrett "Dark Forces" story...

    How can I learn a lesson from
    what I did 26 years ago?

    Garrett's gift to Anne Tolley - now she can scrap all teaching of history... after all what's the point...

  • Southerly: Refugee Status,

    @ Ross

    I could make a comment you know. About the status of Chch. You are lucky I was born there.

    did you, by any chance, go to South Intermediate school?

    lumbering pun...

    I find it very charming that on consecutive days Jim Anderton is endorsing Woods, and recommending wood.

    shouldn't all these wood references be on the
    My First Job thread?

    and yeah... the unexpected change in suburb will take some getting used to. it's weird over here.

    surely in that vowel-less suburb it would be wyrd... unless you meant Styx?
    ;- )
    Good luck with the process ahead, though...

  • Hard News: The Bollard Book,

    Rigger mortis...

    Did anyone even know who Garrett was in 2005?

    well he was at least potentially two people!
    but did he know who he was?

  • Voting Local 2010,

    Besides, while a lot of Coasters knew me as a whitebaiter, buggerall know me as a writer.

    hmmm, I guess having a big net presence means something completely different on the coast, then...

  • Southerly: Refugee Status,

    Pros and cons...

    Apparently the previous occupant ran a knocking-shop on these premises, and was evicted for her enterprise.

    I read about that in the paper...
    be careful who ya open the door to!

    Do you get to repair back to your old riparian idyll if it is repaired?

  • Up Front: Lessons from Nature,

    your url doesn't hurl...

    It'll be more dramatic when the trebuchet hits.

    I'm guessing you mean the siege machine
    and not the Microsoft© font...
    ...though Bill Gates is a bit of a tosser

  • Up Front: Lessons from Nature,

    Got to get you into my life...

    So we've had two of the Four Elements of the Apocalypse come through in the last two weeks (Earth and Air).

    Anyone know when we can expect Fire and Water to show up?

    I think Fire and Water have been busy in Australia recently (though we've had a fair bit of water action)
    maybe these polar Winds will bring over some of Australia's Locusts...
    ;- )

    ...but spare a thought for this weekend's start to the Alexandra Blossom Festival here's hoping the wild wintry weather (and locusts) stay away for that....
