Hermione 77 Report post Posted September 19, 2023 Tried to get onto HRNZ site this morning to check on infohorse. Trouble getting on first because Firefox advised me it was an unsecured site and did I really want to proceed. Yes please. Umm headlines says 20th September most of website unavailable because they are shifting to another building. Can't get my head around the logic, it reads as if they have physical files on site that will be trucked elswhere? wph and john legend 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterEd 332 Report post Posted September 22, 2023 Sounds about right. Spend hundreds of thousands of dollars shifting premises probably doubling expenses in the process. Then wonder why the organization is running out of money further down the track. Watch this space! wph 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cost saving and putting money back into the industry indirectly. Taku Umanga, Thejanitor and lamour 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birmingham Drive was a shocker for parking. 2Piper 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, they moved to Birmingham Drive [ agree re. parking ] and now back again? plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose...

Lincoln1 33 Report post Posted September 22, 2023 Recent years have been Birmingham Drive and previous to that was Lincoln Road. I don’t believe to be owned by Addington Raceway but not certain on that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing is for sure the top tier will be rubbing their hands together for a new performance bonus. The odds are 100-1 that participants who keep the industry running and do most of the heavy lifting see any of the money going directly back to the industry.
