I couldn’t possibly bring back the bent and buckled bike frm Chch 2 PN. The flight would straighten it out and ruin its value again! A bike shop has it 4 parts – they prob supply all of NZ. Haha. Dairy farmers getting what they deserve 4 voting National. Back to bad old Muldoon days of nanny state price freezes and subsidies just to keep Maori Party happy. Bring back Labour’s open market policies. Well done again US Navy Seals. Hostages rescued, 9 Somali bandits ‘‘reformed’’. Ashhurst resident, stop moaning about Gorge, the crews are doing their best to get it open, give them a chance. You bought on the detour route. Ha ha Steve B on Tamaki’s diary. Good job in awesome parody. Many a true word is said in jest. Jig I wonder whether the Botanical/ Tremaine intersecti­on would be safer with lights instead of the roundabout. It’s such a busy area. Come on Palmy people. The most dangerous intersecti­on is the one where drivers don’t take care. Pete Re: Water Safety NZ article. Our school does have a pool but teachers have little pool time allocated to teach non-swimmers. Solution: Govt fund instructor­s to work with non-swimmers in class time. Prioritise. Re: the gorge, why don’t the powers to be just pull the gear off the gorge job and concentrat­e on improving the Saddle Road. The saddle is much more scenic. Stop moaning about school uniforms that save parents money in the long run and set standards for students. Plan in advance. There are always good quality 2nd hands for sale. Got passed on the Saddle Road by a kid driving his friends to the motox. 70kmh was not fast enough for this muppet and his dangerous driving didn’t get him there any faster. You can’t preach to the brainless.
