    • 6 Nov 2023
    • Victoria University of Wellington
    • Within mainstream media in Aotearoa New Zealand, there seems to be a narrative that we are a secular country, and that religion has no place within popular discourse—it’s a thing of the past, something we have moved on from.

    • Well!  What looked like was going to be a possible disastrous bus run turned out GREAT!  The only real rain we got was getting off the but at the top of the Wainui hill.  Once we were into the bush we were out of the wind, and although the track was wet there were less puddles and mud than I was expecting.  We had a few light snow flurries along the ridge, which was magic, the odd hail which was n

• • The Wellingtonista visits Snapper

    • The Wellingtonista
    • Some of us at the Wellingtonista are rather fond of the old Snapper card. We worked through its teething troubles and are now happily tagging on and off as we bus about the city. So when Miki Szikszai, CEO of Snapper, asked us if we'd like to visit Snapper HQ and learn a bit about what's new in the world of the magical talking fish box, we (well, Alan and I) jumped at the chance.

    Heading South-East

    • 9 Jul 2019
    • Eye of the Fish
    • Given that everyone seems to agree that any new PT route needs to go down to Newtown to visit the Hospital (thereby removing any need for doctors, nurses and staff to have to drive to work) and then possibly the Zoo (as another main attraction) and then cross over to Kilbirnie for the large and growing population there, the Eye of the Fish decided to take a look at what may happen there.

These notes will go up in flames on the night of the winter solstice, June 21, as part of our annual Winter Solstice Procession.
