Summer fairs are here
- The Wellingtonista
- After the rush of pre-Christmas shopping when it’s all about everyone else and the right present for the right person and being lovely and selfless, it’s rather nice when summer fair season rolls around.

Ben Hana, aka Tarzan, aka “Blanket Man” dies
- The Wellingtonista
- As reported in the NZ Herald and Stuff. I remember seeing him asleep on the corner of Courtenay Place and Tory Street, bathed in sunshine, loin-cloth akimbo, home-made aluminium-can dope-pipe resting peacefully by his slumbering body, only a couple of weeks back. It seems weird that we won’t see him there again. R.I.P.
