Fem-Cat Friday introduces Becky
- CataBlog
- Little 12 year old Becky came into the shelter as "Bungeye", having lost her right eye in a car accident when she was young. Becky3.jpg Our volunteers hated the name and felt that it focused on her physical issues rather than the lovely cat that she is. Normally we don't rename our cats, but so many people felt that her name just didn't do her justice that we've made an exception in this case.

Fem-Cat Friday is back!
- CataBlog
- Yep - it's been a while, I know. No promises, but I'm going to try to get back to highlighting one of the girls in the shelter looking for a new home each Friday. (If anyone can think of a better name than Fem-Cat Friday, please let me know!) Man-Cat Monday is also planned to follow.

Affordable Housing
- Eye of the Fish
- It’s nice to be able to talk about good things happening in the Wellington architectural market, and the recent announcement in the DomPost about the new replacements for the WCC Regent Park flats is, to me, really good news.

Go Wellington gets three more old diesel bangers for the trolley routes
- Poneke
- Further evidence of the desire of all concerned to marginalise Wellington’s trolley buses is hardly needed, but wait, there is still more.

Outer-T Competition announced
- Eye of the Fish
- Outer-T Competition announced Maximus 18-07-09 1 comment competitionwaterfront We’d hoped to be first to bring you details of the competition on the Outer-T, but the Architectural Centre bet us to it. Ideas welcome - closes 24 August. Oddly enough, there’s not a thing on the websites of either Wellington Waterfront or the City Council yet.

Harbour Cycling
- Eye of the Fish
- News of this has just come to light here at the Fish headquarters: the Council is supporting the ‘Great Harbour Way‘ cycle path along the edge of the big pond out there, “proposed to run almost 70 km from Pencarrow right around Wellington Harbour before finally ending at Owhiro Bay on Wellington’s South Coast.

Stevie Starr
- Wellington Live Music
- There was a feeling of being within a production, with scattered lights and photographers all around. The scene had been set at The Mighty Mighty for Stevie Starr’s debut album release - ‘We Hope In All Things New’ - as a few monitors on stage screened security footage; humming noise from real world crime.
