This seems worthy of a Monty Python sketch.

Found the right spot for my new Ninja! Now I just need to find out how to use it.

Satire, but also truth.

Andrew Gunn spot on again.

"National rose to power promising to “fix” the cost of living crisis. The fact that it hasn’t wouldn’t necessarily have meant disaster at next year’s election, if it wasn’t saddled with a weak leader and entitled senior ministers acting as if they’re in their third term, not their first."

I love irises. This one has just opened in my garden.

In my garden this morning I had a lovely companion - a korimako. Later, at the botanic gardens a Kereru feasted on nectar in a bush just a meter from me & a quail ran under a bush in front of me.

But then at Ilex there was this bully who almost took my lunch out of my mouth.

The original recipe from early 1970, whiskey eventually substituted with Grand Marnier, & cake fed with more every couple of weeks up until a week or so before Christmas Day.

"Of course, the counting of special votes cannot necessarily be blamed for slow coalition talks. Voters with long memories will recall New Zealand was kept waiting for nearly two months after the first MMP election in 1996."
