And if you are sorely in need of diversion from worrying about loved ones, the damage to a beloved city, or how to put body and soul back together, then take a break, find a working tv and watch today's Australia v Springboks test. There's nothing at stake for Kiwis, watch it even if you can't stand rugby, because, well, it's just an exciting game of soaring success, reversal, digging yourself out of a hole, and playing down to the wire. For 80 minutes you'll at least be diverted, distracted, and maybe even enthused.
We now return to normal transmission - test pattern to be imagined about here. (You have to be reasonably old to know what a test pattern was).
p.s. I've been scared to ask anyone, because it would seem crass, but what the heck, it's me after all, does anyone know if Lancaster Park, er AMI stadium held up ok? It should given all the new construction!

All Blacks Win Tri Nations, Aussies Hang Their Politicians Out to Dry
Weekend round-up
New Zealand's All Blacks won a thrilling cliff hanger of a rugby test in South Africa to take the Tri-Nations crown for 2010, adding it to the Bledisloe Cup won a fortnight ago against the Wallabies.
Meantime, over the ditch in Australia, voters hung their politicians of all persuasions out to dry. Nice one, Aussies!
All in a weekend's work, as they say.
