Holiday Time

My holidays start this afternoon. For the next three weeks, blogging will be as I can be bothered – probably still a couple of posts per day, but don’t expect to see any breaking news here.
I’m staying at a mate’s apartment in Australia for a week. Sleep, read and beach are the aim.
Back in Wellington pretty much just for New Year’s Eve.
Then in Waikanae for a week, with my family.
Then in Reikorangi (no you probably have not heard of it) for a week, with a few friends.
Returning to Wellington and work on 17 January. Oh yeah, and moving house that day also!
Hope you all have a good holiday break also.

Have a great, deserved break, and thanks heaps for what you provide here.

All the best for the festive season David and thank you for running a very informative blog.

Have a great holiday; you deserve it. KB has been essential reading over the past year; and next year being election year will require even more dedication to the cause. (The cause is of course holding people who would control our lives to account).

Guess I’ll be watching episodes of “Frankie Boyle’s Tramadol Nights” over Christmas instead.

“Then in Reikorangi (no you probably have not heard of it) for a week, with a few friends.”
Never heard of it! Never heard of it!!
Good God man did I ever tell you of the night I spent entertaining the whole sixth form of Saint Marys at the Kapakapanui Hut just a bit up the track from there.
That was a night to remember.
Have a great Xmas. Eat all the fish you can catch at Waikanae before Chris gives them away.

Actually Johnboy it’s Meri Kihirimete
DPF; have a great break, and thanks for all the hard work you put in the stay at the top of the tree. When the lefties have to abuse you and those who post here, it’s a sure sign that you are winning, and that you are doing God’s work!
Merry Christmas all
