  1. Obviously you have not watched Pocock !! Cheers Archie
  2. The welsh are starting to sound like the south africans,whingeing their heads off.It was a dangerous tackle and thats red card material and always has been.He was the WELSH CAPTAIN who is suppose to lead by example.Others have been red carded for the same offence so what was the difference this time !! Put the blame where it lies, right on the welsh captain's shoulders- if he lost them the world cup then so be it. Cheers Archie
  3. Madlib Wasnt he the boyfriend of her daughter from memory !! Cheers Archie
  4. Must say I still like "Pembrook Benny" Cheers Archie
  5. Rogue, they do the same as the Business Tax Information Officer but for Maori organisations and businesses.For serveal years i was a BTIO and worked with the MCO's in tandem. They were created and do the same training as the BTIO with the addition of knowing the protocols and procedures for entering maraes etc etc.I was one of the original BTIO's at Manukau City.They will go through the business taxes, book keeping required,file keeping, everything the BTIO does. Hope that helps etc. Cheers Archie
  6. Opo, thanks for that letter from John Key. Its funny that i receive regular updates from him via email but never received that one, so have forwarded a copy to him asking him why I did not receive a copy of this particular one before? I have taken the liberty of leaving your name attached so he does know he has some diligent workers acting on his behalf just prior to the elections. Cheers and have a good day(tic) Cheers Archie
  7. Thrush, many thanks,and will hunt out latest TIB. Cheers Archie
  8. Thrush, when did they abolish the gift duty.I knew they were thinking about it but did not realise it has been done? Cheers Archie
  9. I see that last week the Irish SAS were dropped into Libya with orders " to take out Gadaffi" So far they have taken him out to the pictures twice and the local resturant once. Cheers Archie
  10. I see the Prime Minister and Auckland Mayor are now running around like blue arsed flies arranging the showing of both codesnow, funny how election year has an effect on things doesnt it and a bit of bad publicity for them pushed things along a bit.They could have done both before but thought they could get away without it until the bad publicity. Played rugby for years myself and even watched the South Africans v New Zealand at Athletic park Wellington, in the days of Don Clark and Van vollen hoffen on the wing for SA. Cheers Archie
  11. Teletubby, you will find this is what "poison dwarf" aka Murray mcCully slipped through in the RWC 2011 empowering bill a couple of years back and now the public are finding out what it really means.A lot of disgruntled people up this way and they will find that out at election time as well.Colin Giltrap got stung for over $10,000 when he had to take the name "ALL BLACKS" off his window as the NZRU have the registered trade mark to that name.They have lost a donor there for future use as well.Several small businesses(aka tea rooms)were threatened with legal proceedings if they used the name as well.Lot of all black support lost up here through that sort of heavy handed attitude.Personally will not follow the All Blacks at through that, have gone for other teams to win the competition, such as Moldova !! Cheers Archie
  12. This whole debate reminds me of politicians who cannot recognise our own New Zealand flag - they should not be politicians either if they cant !! Whats so difficult distinguishing between white and red stars / or cant they count either!! Cheers Archie
  13. razor, I suggest you lighten up or youll die of a heart attack worrying about the world. Cheers Archie
  14. i can see the funny side of it as my ancestors are also irish, scots and english somewhere along the line.Some of them fought in the maori wars and even married into the maori race as well,mainly in the Ngati Apa and Rangitane areas etc,You have to have a sense of humour these days which appears to be lacking in some people. Cheer Archie
  15. Im sure the third chap must have been irish !! Three friends went on a vacation to a barbarous third-world country. One morning, after a night of wild partying that none of them could remember, they woke up in jail. It turns out they were to be executed that day. As the first one was strapped into the electric chair, he was asked if he had any last words. He said, "I hold a law degree from Harvard, and I believe in the power of Justice to save me!" The switch was thrown and nothing happened, so he was set free. As the second one was strapped into the electric chair, he was asked if he had any last words. He said, "I hold a divinity degree from Yale, and I believe in the power of God to save me!" The switch was thrown and nothing happened, so he was set free. As the third one was strapped into the electric chair, he was asked if he had any last words. He said, "I hold a masters degree in Electrical Engineering from MIT, and if you don't connect those two wires, this thing'll never work!" Cheers to all -Archie
  16. dont know how true, but heard that as result that the firm that hired him haslost the security contract for that job because of his actions. I think all he could see was the almighty $$$$$$$ before his eyes !! Cheers Archie
  17. Grahame, dont hold your breath !! Cheers Archie
  18. Razor, I suggest you go and do the same, check out his official title !! I thin k you will find the word Concilliator is part of his title.Cheers Archie
  19. Cannot see the useless dork called the Race Relations Concilliator doing anything about this.He always finds a way to try and defuse the situation.Whats his name, Boris de .........(something or other) but have seen his past efforts and typical ex labour/union man,tries to keep on side of where his salary comes from. Cheers Archie
  20. Sheraco, you do have to watch the Oleander tree alright. A family in New Zealand a few years ago died after using the branches as firewood on their lounge fire,they just thought it was good firewood,Stoked up the fire and went to bed and dead in the morning. Cheers Archie
  21. Lloyd, you have to be joking if you think they are going to do anything. If hone can get away with his mother f...ers comments do you honestly think they will do anything here. Cheers Archie
  22. Kaye, you forgot to add then the aussies will not get horses like the champions theyhave got now that came fromhere originally.Yes,it willhave a positive spin off. Cheers Archie
  23. Christ, they whole thing is getting to be one big joke these days.No wonder people are pulling away from harness racing. Cheers Archie
  24. Kay, I think you summed it up nicely when you said: "Minister of Racing - whoever that may be?" Dont expect too mjuch from the presently appointed "bean counter" calling himself the Minister of Racing. About his only claim to fame is being the "patsy puting questioner" making the Minister of Finance look good. Watch him quite often on parliament TV when its on. Craig Foss is his name from memory. Cheers Archie
  25. Thrush, sure youre not talking about Auckland.Thats how they get their good players, cannot produce any of their own. Cheers Archie
