According to
this article on cricinfo. NZ Cricket are thinking to scrap the boxing
day test at the Basin, and replace it with an ODI at Eden Park.
Utter utter arsehats.
The Basin is always packed for the test, and has a great atmosphere, and its
not like Eden park is short of events, for crying out loud, its just a
mental idea.

Arsehats of the week!
Well its early in the week, but this technically happened last week, so
perhaps its arsehats of last week. And the prize goes to Air New Zealand.
For their ridiculous stance in not helping disabled people to and from their
seats on the aircraft.
New Zealand’s national carrier is the only airline to refuse to help the
disabled into their seats.
And the Bledisloe stays where it should, in NZ
Not a pretty game, but about the best you could expect with about 8 trillion
litres of rain falling. The All Blacks had it all over the aussies for the
whole game, and deserved the win. Roll on South Africa.
The dreaded lurgy
Well im slowly getting better, id recomend not catching this strain of flu
if you can avoid it though. Its one of the nasty achy bone ones. Where every
joint aches, and moving is just not worth the pain. Ive set up a little pc
in the lounge on the wireless LAN, so im nice and warm and stretched out on
the couch.
Down with the Flu
Well im not feeling the best today, ever since i woke up, ive been achey all
over. I’m off to bed now and hope I feel a lot better tomorrow.
Whining flag changers piss me off!
C’mon people don’t we have a few things a little more important to talk
about than this?
Perhaps we should try and decide what this country is going to be like
before we choose a new flag to represent it.
My house is full of women!!
Laurel has organised the TLC extramural departments meeting to be at our
house today. Its jam packed full of artists / art teachers.
They bought nice food though so I dont mind.
WTF ??
Ok, I just watched Donnie Darko .. and im puzzled by two things, well a lot
more than two things, but two main things.
- What the hell was that all about?
- Why did I like it so much?
Fantastic feed of Mussels
Russ has put up the recipe for
the fantastic feed of mussels he cooked for us on saturday night. Give it a
whirl, it was delicious.
Tired but Happy.
Well installed knoppix on Russ’s
machine with no real hitches. Knoppix Is pretty
fantastic with its hardware detection. Everything just works.
Then we were treated to a great game of rugby. All blacks vs the Pacific
Islanders. Which the All Blacks won, but which was much closer than a lot of
people might have thought which im glad about, as I think the concept of
Pacific Islanders team is a great one.
Then we beat Australia in basketball, a great turn around from the 30 point
thrashing we’d received the night before.
And to cap it all of, Daniel Vettori had a blinder and we beat the West
Indies in a NatWest ODI cricket final.
Small Horse to you Daniel.
