If anyone wants to see the interior of Tajikistan from a motorbike perspective, this YouTube channel (Sticky Boots) is amazing, and calming somehow. Came across it randomly and I’m totally hooked on her adventures now. youtu.be/Bx3Ju3cw0mE?...

@thepress.co.nz what insensitive reporting about a house fire in Linwood. Was it really necessary to include a reference from a decade ago about this person’s lifestyle in her early life? What does that have to do with this accidental fire? Victim blaming??

This might look a bit obscure, it’s a mirror against a wall in my central hallway reflecting the wood burner flame. It’s so I can see when I need to feed the flame from the comfort of my bed. Ok it’s Sunday, lie in day ok. Aaand 5deg still.

I listened to this podcast overnight from Ira Glass’ The American Life. 3 stories, the last one in the courtroom of Judge Reyes was fascinating to hear.

Does anyone in Ōtepoti recognize this house? Back in 1995 my dad took me to see it, recalling fond memories of a holiday to rellies who lived there in the 1920’s. Would love to know who they were, but not sure where to start. Thanks.

I’ve just done 2 surveys - Ipsos and Kantar. Both had a number of questions about te reo Māori (place names, teaching in schools, signage). Wonder who requested this information gathering. Hope my comment about ‘red necks’ hits a mark.
