EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist language, homophobic language, racist language, anti-muslim hate, transphobic language, Chemtrails, 9/11 truthers, Qanon lunacy, climate deniers, anti-fluoride fanatics, anti-vaxxer lunatics, 5G conspiracy theories, the virus is a bioweapon, some weird bullshit about the UN taking over the world and ANYONE that links to fucking infowar.

And wait for it – Fitzgerald has recently retired. Watch him go on to another little gig. Either in a public ‘service’ role in an agency such as MBIE or MSD where the idea is to build up their own little police force empire, or perhaps the corporate world
Well there’s an hour I won’t get back!
Watching the gorgeous movers and shakers, influencers, fashionistas et al on Newshub Nation. I feel utterly inadequate.
I’ll take heart though seeing Toby. He looked like the greaser I imagined him to be. There’s hope for me yet
Don’t be down even temporarily OwT. You are trying to Make NZ Great Again, and that is a powerful call sign. Have a Merry Christmas and get recharged.
Fear not @ Grey. The human form is not meant to be ecstatic 24/7. That’s why we were given a range of emotions. I’m never down for more than 5 minutes. I can’t take myself seriously enough and I’ve learned I can’t ever be the perfect specimen.
It’s a shame so many others take themselves so bloody seriously (like all those gorgeous creatures on this morning’s Newshub Nation Xmas bash)
You sound like the very perfect example of a human then OwT. It all goes to show… And so it goes (Vonnegut).
I just found out I’m a year younger than I thought I was. Somehow I lost count along the way, no doubt a result of rounding up at some point. Apparently it’s not uncommon. Best laugh I’ve had for a while and have been sharing the giggle with everyone, Just for fun 🙂
Being 65 and able to retire can be like heaven and if mstaken and only 64 one might sing wistfully the Beatles song – Will you still need me, will you still feed me, When I’m 64.

Quelle surprise! The fire sale has begun in ernest.
Also thanks Denny for keeping the spotlight on rotten politics in Auckland Council, a true revelation for those of us outside the sphere.
Janak Patel the young Indian man fatedly killed by an idiot robbing his dairy, parents want fast tracked permanent residency. I am not in favor of this as it sets a very bad precedent. They still have valid visas, and these can be extended further until they need but they should not get permanent residency, nor should it be fast tracked. How old are they? as we already have an aging population with very high needs costing us millions. We don’t need to add additional burdens on our overstretched health system and there are issues of fairness here. Yes, it is sad this young man lost his life, but we need to be careful. As I have said extend their visas by all means.
I’m confused about something that happens on the TDB site. Today and yesterday when I have been at the start of getting onto the site, before I have started choosing posts, down the right hand side some eye-catching stuff comes briefly then flashes away.
This morning there was a small square advertising some attractive female’s Protecting ‘Innocence Project’ then there was something about images that had been secret and two were shown, one of a woman at a bar and a man’s hand on her bottom, and the other of a person’s back skin apparently peeled away to show the flesh underneath right down to the cleft of the bottom. It had a young man in a white apron perhaps butcher-like at the side.
I don’t know if it is my computer or not but I don’t dabble in sleaze as I think it just muddies the mind for properly realising finer things when they appear. Could I have some response to this so I know what to do. I have much of Adblock turned off – are these ads on TDB or have they broken through the cordon sanitaire?
