Hi Folks,
Well its official the city fathers want to put a
sign up above the airport in a Hollywood stylie sign " Wellywood" it has been
pointed out by local radio that the temptation to change the "y" to an
"I",
with this thought in mind I am now wondering
whether this will happen !
Whilst the world continues to spiral into eco
meltdown in small town NZ the only talking points are MP
dissing parents on planes about there noisy and
disruptive kids on flights, the PC police were on his case toot smart but it
appears that public opinion had a different view, "get the kids under control
mate" the comments were just what we all think but dare not say, is the back
lash on its way ,
In the last fourtnight we have had several major
earth quakes both on the south american side and at the bottom of the south
Island, at 8.8 on the rickta scale it was quite sever but as nobody lives down
there there wasnt much to report,
Fiji has been lashed by another cyclone this year
the second major one in four months, this year it seems that the pacific storms
have been very active as opposed to our time out there were it was rather benign, hopefuly it will all have settled down
before my trip in late April.
Apart from that, our freinds on Rhythm have had a
serious set back, during the floods in Oz the flooded river were there boat is
moored had a number of vessels torn from there moorings and swept down stream,
they got lodged amongst other moored vessels, whilst trying to cut there vessel
free from the pack Ike was severly injured ,he ended crushed between two
vessels in his dingy, managing to get aboard a vessel and adventualy being taken
to hospital by the emergency services, he is now in a stable condition it turns
out his hip is broken in four places , but escaped internal
injuries.
Official summer ended last week and we will be
going to winter time in a few weeks, whilst we have been experiancing an indian
summer down here we cant compain .
