Capital chatter

My FB status 5 years ago was Eminem’s lyrics to Lose Yourself then I hear on the radio he’s coming to Wellington. #cringe

My suburban bus driver is chortling because a Wellington CBD bus driver got stuck in a street in the CBD at peak time and it’s chaos.

Train from Wellington to Lower Hutt. I’d heard there was a whale in the harbour. When it breached, I exclaimed ‘‘there’s an orca!’’ to the whole carriage, thinking they’d all be as excited as I was. Stony silence. Then a few minutes later, further down the carriage ‘‘I saw it too!’’

In other news, if Wellington craft brewers are truly hipster, why haven’t they created an avocado IPA called Mortgage Mangler? #WellingtonBeers

@patrick478

There are 99c avocados at the fruit shop in Newtown and I saw them yesterday and decided not to buy them and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about them since.

At least if I slip on the wet pavement on Lambton Quay I can grab onto a dawdling tourist. Maybe they had that in mind when they put down those Death Tiles.

@JInTheLife

So many men in the Lambton area wear such poorly fitting suits.
