I don't recommend driving from Wellington to Auckland in one day

But if you do a Toyyota RAV 4 Hybrid is an excellent vehicle to do it in

Just over a half tank used hauling moi, B19 and a shit load of his belongings back here for the summer

Coffee and cake (2 types) probably wasn't the smartest breakfast choice

In a meeting about healthcare resources

It's meant to be about equity and ethical allocations alongside best practice usage

AND YET every presenter and discussion ends up talking about cutting costs

Fuck that

I'm making myself really unpopular by dragging the discussions back to the actual point

Oi Wellington
I requested sunshine
Where is it?

Stop blowing money up

I've a flight at 6am and I'd like to get some fucking sleep

Also lots of sirens in the area, so that bodes well

To anyone on the Great South Road over the last hour

The blue beemer blasting French EDM was me

Sorry, not sorry. It's too nice a day not to have the windows down and the music up

Ah, fireworks

Ffs, shut the fuck up

My Northen Britishness has kicked in

I still want a toffee apple, but now I also want Parkin

Not that soft Lancashire Golden Syrup version. I want a slab of proper Yorkshire Black Treacle made stuff

I blame Guy Fawkes for all my recent cravings

Still really fancy a toffee apple

Couldn't find any, so I munched on a load of goldfish instead

Looks like I might have to make my own

I really fancy a toffee apple right now

250kg of dry potting mix, 30kg of sand, 20kg of lime all nicely mixed together and rebagged

All because I fancy growing a lavender hedge

I've shifted from A to B, then B to C and back around a tonne of material today

I must be nuts

Disappointedly, it doesn't smell of bacon

Yes, it's a dumb arse decision that's led to GSI building ships to replace ships that were already built

No, it's not a surprise that a risk assessment by the agencies whose job it is will be part of the procurement process

Standard practice

Why are NZ spy agencies involved in buying the Cook Strait ferries?
The state-owned Chinese company chosen to build Interislander’s two new ferries also builds gear for China’s military. Judith Collins says NZ spy agencies have played a role in the procurement process...
