    @jegga I was driving into work yesterday and the car sitting next to me had 'In loving memory of Connor MOrris' and then whatever the dates were on their rear window...it has obviously been tough on everyone

    @taniwharugby I hear you, hard to believe it's been three years. Seems like only yesterday he was giving someone a beating on the footpath in a p fuelled rage . It's these kind of memories that keep him alive in our hearts.

    Lucky to be happy more like it, lucky her then alive daddy could afford the best lawyers to fight any convictions for being involved with P.
    I wonder if travelling through Te Kuiti would appeal as much as Greece for her facebook loving fans

    @taniwharugby TR - you're in Whangarei right? Those cars seemingly are everywhere. Driving down River Road , Hamilton, yesterday morning, I followed a black Ford Territory with the same sticker on the rear window. I have seen it a couple of times now.

    The SUV that meth bought.

    @Tregaskis I am, but was the first time I had seen that one...always the odd other ones with RIP type messages on their windows.

    This was a Subaru Legacy, not an SUV, always the poor cousins up this way 😉

    Interesting ... new England boss wants to use the AB's model of internal leadership in the England football team. I could see this working under the likes of Beckham, Shearer ... but not sure if I could say the same of Rooney.

    We have one of those at our primary school. Feral scum, as you'd expect.

    Damn!

    Gist of the article: if the merger is permitted then we could end up with a viable high quality national newspaper. Without the merger, both orgs are doomed, which is not a good alternative. (Surrounded by a lot of Jones's usual musings)

    We " could" but at the moment we have competition which should in theory make them try and outdo do each other for market share. Instead you'd be embarrassed to line the bottom of a budgies cage with either of them. How would a monopoly improve that?

    This is pretty benign, but it did annoy me because I thought I was going to read an informed article about biking on Canaan Downs (which I've done) and the Rameka Track (which I haven't but I'm planning to).

    But, it turns out she's written an article about not going to Canaan Downs, nor Harwoods Hole, nor the Rameka Track, because she didn't actually go there - she didn't like the look of the track (which is actually a reasonably benign gravel road).

    I suppose I'm not the target audience, because the first hand account of going to the cafe just off the main road and the petting zoo, weren't of much interest to me.
