Oh my dears, I have had such a tedious day.

10.40-eye test. Optometrist not happy with my vision, glasses will not fix. Referral to specialist 😬
11.50-attend dentist to have prep for crown, temporary cap fitted
12.20-actually see dentist. Things go wrong at all possible points
13.50-released from dentist clutches, pay lots of money as deposit for even more money. Escapes to go swimming
14.50-leaves pool
15.50 - Arrives home #exhausted. 25 min trip takes 1 hour. Traffic insane. need 🥃

It's on me really as I didn't mask up but I'd like to thank the person on the flight Wgton-Auck last Friday morning who gave me (and presumably) everyone on the plane a cold. Fuck you very much.

So.. for anyone who is interested this was my culinary invention tonight. Slow cooked beef stew (with too many dumplings, allegedly) served inside.... YORKSHIRE PUDDINGS... #amazeballs Surely i get some kind of award for this kind of stuff? #cookery #yorkshirepudding

@iangriffin The shape of the pud is reminiscent of a cloth cap which were popular items in Yorkshire. Culinary icon.

From today’s live blog on RNZ:

‘The ACT Party says it would allow builders to opt out of council building consents to improve the quality and cost of housing, if elected.’

Opting out of consents sounds like a fantastic way to ensure quality.

    This is David Bowie and the Spiders doing Jean Genie.It seems harder edged than the studio album but maybe they were miming and I'm just imagining it. Anyways it appears to be an actual long lost thing and the costumes are great.

    #nzhistory Does anyone have a link to anything about the 1913 Waterfront strike. I know a fair bit but would like to know more, especially about the wives and families of the strikers. Thanks in advance.

    Unless the file is too big, in which case I will stamp my feet and cry :(

    EDIT: Right size, wrong format. Fortunately, it was an easy fix in Powerpoint (the only easy thing about that bloody program!)

    My most favourite thing to eat is brown butter mashed potato with truffle jus. This food of the gods is available in Pravda restaurant in Wellington. OMG it's good.
