Daily review is also your post.
This provides Standardistas the opportunity to review events of the day.
The usual rules of good behaviour apply (see the Policy).
Don’t forget to be kind to each other …
Cricket and gardening for the weekend i think – looks like it’ll be delightful.
Me too. It’ll be marvellous
Playing or watching?
Watching and playing very badly…presidents grade
Good on ya, batter or bowler?
I’m tempted to get back into playing, see if I can still crack a few skulls.
Nothing like seeing that look of fear as you’re coming into bowl.
What a strange character you are.
BM’s stirring. 😈
No, I’m not I used to love tearing in and bowling as fast as I could and letting the batsman have it.
I had you down as silly point.
Preferred slip to be honest, but did also enjoy ranging in the covers as well.
Ah – so ‘BM’ stands for “bragging medium-pacer”.
We are never as quick as we imagine BM. I used to fancy myself as being quite sharp, till I experienced getting pasted all over the place by batsmen of genuine quality.
No, ‘wanna crack a few skulls’, is his mission statement. Right down to the family cat.
And it’s something Tony Veitch would say.
No bouncers allowed in presidents grade, no one wears helmets just caps to keep the sun off all the bald heads.
Uma Thurman all class

Yep!

“Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! (Except you Harvey, and all your wicked conspirators – I’m glad it’s going slowly – you don’t deserve a bullet) -stay tuned.”
7 cubic metres of mulch off the driveway and around the garden …
… just as soon as the Head Gardener shifts the Swan Plants and full load of compost out of the wheelbarrow.
Sigh.
Be careful, flaccid desk-bound office guys such as yourself overdoing it, is the reason ACC premiums are through the roof.
Gawd you can be a professional prick when you put your mind to it! 😈
Well, at least he’s professional at something.
As opposed to lunatic wingnuts smashing skulls with cricket balls…
I run 9k’s every day in the steepest streets in Auckland.
I’m close to the fittest I’ve ever been.
Whatever regime you’re on, I would wear you down until you die.
Excellent 😎
Hang on, bm can open a chippie packet and a fizzy bottle with just his knees – do you know who youre ribbing and making fun of? Nah? You’re about to feel the BUUUURN.
Has Newshub called time on Bill English’s leadership of the National Party?

Could Lynch have laid it on any thicker?
Lynch is effectively a National Party PR manager rather than a journalist.
Lets hope so.He copies Key even down to his accent.Easy meat.Collins is the most astute and probably their best bet imo.
Collins has insufficient support in caucus and in the party hierarchy to make the play
In fact English leader Bridges deputy might be an option.
I think she might have too many skeletons in her closet to appeal to the public as a PM choice. JS
National aren’t complete amateurs like Labour, English will move aside in another year or so.
english and joyce should have both stepped down after the last election.
bill has now twice failed to be voted by the public as PM
joyce got the party sued with his choices, and failed to keep the party in government as campaign manager.
maybe they are both still around because of the lack of choices to replace them.
simon bridges won’t bring the party to victory either.
Meanwhile nick smith is out campaigning like his career depended on it, we received his propaganda about the waimea dam in the mail this week, WestCoast/Tasman is not his electorate, that pisses me off that he’s targeting the Tasman electorate.
Question please, what do the tories on here think of nick smith? Honest answers please, just curious. Thanks.
But apparently the National party aren’t complete amateurs like Labour.
English led a relatively successful campaign, obtaining 44%, but could not control Winston’s final decision. English got better as he went along, freeing himself from Key’s shadow. Having said that, if English was involved in the leaking of Winston’s super details, he deserves his position in Opposition.
If English was involved?…. Don’t think you will get him to admit that Viper. Wasn’t he involved with some other text dodgyness that he apparently didn’t know anything about. Not to mention Billion dollar invisible holes.
+1 Nick
Thanks for your perspective CV
