hmmm, maybe its Monday.....there didn't seem much traffic on the road
to work today....people licking their wounds....bets on (a) how much Air
NZ will fall short (b) the Melbourne Cup (c) how long before the next Fiji
coup.
I'd also like to make a speech that 1987 was a holocaust, and no, I'm not
apologising.....
Good bit of radio journalism on TRANZ Rail over the weekend and for 
fleeting moments I could almost see some validity in the socialist point
of view...but for different reasons, well sentimental really, the Kingston
Flyer; a cup of tea (hic) at Taihape at midnight on the way to the
Varsities
tournament; the Tranz Scenic to Greymouth; slowly wending ones way
up the Sound from Picton on a fine day; the hypnotic clackety clack through
the Wellington commuter tunnels; the beauty of the Kaikoura coast that you
miss from the road; the trip I still want to make with a stack 
of good reading and some agreeable companions on the Southerner. 
Bugger it, railways are too important to be left to railway companies that
just run them down without understanding the romance of the Orient
Express...
Nationalise the bastards - its the only thing I agree on with Jim
whatisname ...

cheers,
Hugh
