  - The Wellingtonista
  - Twitter has informed us that Mojo Old Bank (@mojooldbank) and the Mojo on the Terrace are having a coffee art throw-down at 6.30pm tonight at the Mojo located in the PWC Building on the Terrace (map here).   There is talk of beer and pizza for those wanting to watch the action.   I think we could be up for some coffee porn this evening.....

  - While the Hook of Maui has been scrapped due to cost overruns and problems with the frickin' laser, the Wellington City Council is still keen on the idea of a gateway sculpture, and indeed the competition will be re-run later his year.

  - You'd have to have been living under a rock (by which I mean "not been in Civic Square for the last couple of weeks") not to have noticed the outbreak of spots all over the City Gallery.

  - What was that sound of crying and wailing all over Wellington yesterday? Why were single ladies pulling their hair and sobbing onto one another's shoulders? Did it have anything to do with a certain DPF changing his facebook status from "Single" to "In a relationship"?

  - I think the highlight of the Wellingtonista cinema-going week is likely to be a toss-up between the wonderful Vanguard retrospective at the Film Archive or the restored print of Casablanca.

  - What to do when one's parents come to town and want to take you out to dinner? We usually quiz our fellow Wellingtonistæ around the office watercooler: there's always an opinion or three on a subject like this.

  - We've written before about the fire at the Maranui Surf Cafe, and how bloody sad that was, but it's kind of bloody lovely to see the way that this city can be all small-town-like and good-hearted, with yet more events planned to raise money for the cause.
