,,, it's Monday morning here, so the weekend's over for me. This thread is a great opportunity for a foreigner like me to express my gratitude and warm wishes for your friendship. A big "thank you" too for the help you've given me at various times when I haven't been able to work out who's who in some topic or photo; for the laughs we've shared; the synergies we hold so dear. Many of you have been fabulous sounding boards when I post Kiwi articles and that's been encouraging.

A special thank you to Jim Robinson and his crew for running the most magnetic site I know - and to ZCAT from Michigan, who urged me about a year ago to get onto it. I'm hoping I've listed everyone I should have to get this text.

God bless you all.

Best wishes from Wellington, New Zealand.

You're very welcome, there Shaggy, old mate! Keep us posted on your election. PS...where did that plane slide off the snowy runway?

Hi there,
It's Monday evening here and I'm getting ready to pack it in and commute home.
I read your article about the push to have elections in July and all I can say is that it looks strangely like one of those schemes that only Labor in NZ and the Democrats here in the US could attempt. It smacks of the antics of Hillary Clinton- - - capitalize on popularity before voters realize what a crock of *%&$ you stand for.

Well, I hope you have more luck than we did in defeating her.

I have not yet gotten around to looking at the NZ website. Maybe there will be some downtime here tomorrow. I'd love to look at your little corner of the world.
Regards and have a lovely Tuesday. (It must be Tuesday already in Wellington!)
