My latest rant

Sometimes I just need to rant. Be afraid, you are my captive audience.

Taking the man out of mana

Apparently attacking your pregnant ex isn’t such a big deal. Especially if you have your mana to protect. A manager at Te Papa had a row with his ex while visiting her and their toddler. The child got a bleeding nose after being hit by a door during a struggle between her parents and the […]

Guilty or innocent,, scales of justice

A sensible decision

  As a parent I know I have a responsibility to protect my child (not that he’s a child any more … he’s a fully fledged, hairy young man). When he was just a wee fella, my most important mission in life was to ensure he was happy and healthy. But, as is often the

The rumoured bed …

Big Save say it will be here on Friday. So that’s another delay of another week. They also say (once again) that they’ll understand if we don’t want to go through with the purchase. They’ll understand if we want to buy elsewhere. They’ll understand if we want them to take back the half-arsed, damaged, mismatched

Holidays and wayward furniture

So I’m not back in the land of the web-living after a week of annual leave involving several vodka tasting sessions, searching for lost ping pong balls (Norman’s favourite toy at the moment),  bonding with Seymour the Wonder Cat and his arch-nemesis Norman the Newbie Cat, avoiding the particularly nasty bout of late autumn weather

Frustration generic

The key to getting it right

Dear New Zealand citizens, If you don’t know the name of our country’s Prime Minister you have no right to whinge about him. I am sick to death of seeing all the hand-wringers on the Trade Me message board getting stuck into everything he does while getting his name wrong: it’s John Key, NOT John

Horror after horror

I think I might just be in a bad mood for the rest of the week as I try to get my head around the insensitive, selfish fuck-tards who seem to inhabit some parts of cyberspace here in New Zealand. These past few weeks has been pretty awful, with the deadly quake in Christchurch and

Do You Wanna … what?

I’m not a great fan of Glee I figure, which shouldn’t come as any great surprise since I’m probably 30 years too old to be in the show’s target audience range. So for that reason, I won’t offer any sort of critique of the TV programme in general because I have watched just two episodes since it hit
