I can't help but think that if, in 1945, you told people that the US and Israel would be the aggressors of WW3 you would have been laughed out of the room
Aww I love that for them
Absolutely. They "o" everything. Rego, servo, bottlo, houso, arvo, avo
Between this and her chick hatching this afternoon, Rakiura is must-see TV ๐
Years ago a friend of mine worked for ECan. She said their operating model was that if they didn't have an overwhelming reason to say no to an application, they had to approve it. That's how we got dairy farms in the Mackenzie Country. I think about that a lot ๐
I've seen the dwellings in Glenavy fishing village referred to as cribs and baches in equal measure, so the border is definitely somewhere around Oamaru/Timaru

Who needs an algorithm when you have MEEP
You just want to smack his head with a giant teaspoon to see if his brain is the consistency of a dippy egg.
I'm ok with them getting rid of the full licence test if they introduce retesting every 10 years or so. Iron out the bad habits people pick up
I love this. My grandmother was a notorious airline cutlery thief. I didn't know anyone else did this ๐

He's just added Four Seasons in One Day to his Spotify summer playlist in solidarity with Northland
North Otago Pharmacy in Oamaru will be able to help. They were doing boosters after the local medical centres stopped offering them
Want! It's probably a good thing I won't be in Dunedin for another couple of weeks
That's amazing. The Interislander sticker!
I'm a very pale kiwi who has to avoid the sun like the plague. I went on holiday to Scandinavia and got the best tan of my life. (Not on purpose, I still wore sunscreen.) That is the angle of the sun that my skin is designed for - Arctic Circle-adjacent.
I'm guessing it's full of Nickelback, 30 Seconds to Mars, Kid Rock, Foo Fighters, Dave Matthews Band and other bland shit approximating music
So that's why everything looked orange this afternoon when the cloud thinned briefly
There was a double fatality crash a stone's throw from this spot two years ago. Perhaps it's now considered a black spot?
Or maybe they've upped the budget overall - they are also going to be patrolling around Oamaru schools when the new term starts
