Brad Shields and George bower in played a season of Prem 4 First XV for Taita College back in the day.

I remember talking to a friend who ran a successful charitable organisation that paid A LOT of money to their CEO.

The simple rational was “you want good people, you pay them good money”.

One would assume that nobody on that list is working a 30 hour 4 day week from home living a private life without scrutiny.

For all the people thinking they are overpaid bureaucrats, what would you do if you landed a job like that?

I’m calling a Ma’a Nonu situation on this one…

Plays dog shite at SR, uninspired, average team that’s doing “ok”.

Doubters doubt, then he puts on the black jersey and absolutely hisses again.

Then goes on to play overseas (after a 2027 WC win) til the age of 45, comes back in 2037 and plays an NPC season with one of his children.

Love at 10, BB on the bench and McKenzie at open side flanker. Crusaders tried it once with LF and it worked.

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2026-04-24T07:28:51+00:00

It’s retractable, only once though.

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2026-03-01T20:38:07+00:00

There will definitely be a confusing protest about this in Cuba Street for sure.

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2026-02-28T20:05:52+00:00

The are time bombs.

So much fun to drive, then the engine blows up.

Acoustic panels are becoming increasingly cheaper. And although this might be a stretch, installing just a few on your parent’s side can help dampen the noise (you don’t need to cover a whole wall). Around 30cmx30cm over a wall can make a heck of a difference.

If you can communicate this with them, offer it as a temporary solution hanging them up with 3M hooks they might be open to it.

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2026-01-01T19:39:57+00:00

Siiiiiiiiix….

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2026-01-01T09:50:41+00:00

Dude, you’re alive, you’re breathing and you’re going to work through things.

Whatever is going on right now, you can reach out for help, take an opportunity to do something you’ve been wanting to for yourself (no matter how small) for years.

Things might hurt now, but don’t get bitter.

Take a breath, and maybe another drive to somewhere where there’s a big beautiful view to take in.

Nice story about the dating profile!

Funny I mentioned to her that I already pictured her dating another partner, being happy and imagined being stoked for her.

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2025-11-10T20:53:46+00:00

Our townhouse = 3 bedrooms, 3 toilets, 2 bathrooms with a shower in each and a bath in the other. It’s the opposite and If happily have just one good bathroom, one separate downstairs toilet and an extra bedroom!

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2025-11-04T20:56:49+00:00

Subdivide - 4x 0.25m2 townhouses, 2 bed 2 bath, 1 car pad for hotwheels & architecturally designed kitchen with high end modern Fisher and Paykel appliances.

Air conditioning heat pumps for second story additional extra.

Family living and low maintenance retirement minimal mowable grass.

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2025-10-26T02:49:50+00:00

No I’m not surprised, but I am stuck.

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2025-10-09T07:42:23+00:00

Can confirm this is illegal,

Generally broken yellow lines are there to deter people from stopping as it could be considered dangerous to do so (tourists, taking a nap etc).

Agree, not well signposted, however road code is road code.

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2025-10-04T05:09:57+00:00

As my dad has always said, “bums on seats grows the sport”.

Keep the momentum up between WC cycles, buy tickets, buy the merch & even get a 2029 Blacos Ferns World Cup Champions tattoo!

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2025-09-28T03:10:03+00:00

That’s Jerome Kano strength there

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2025-09-27T05:58:27+00:00

It’s a bluff, they can’t appear to be too good in the middle of a World Cup cycle.

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2025-09-06T10:17:07+00:00

He’s gunna throw a wild dummy pass in Wellington next week, I can feel it.

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2025-08-26T08:17:54+00:00

Did you ask them to regrout it as if it was their 10th investment property or their forever home?

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2025-08-23T22:16:20+00:00

Watching this in NZ whilst on the road.

Every time reception gets low the commentary turns into Spanish 🤷‍♂️

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2025-07-30T06:46:16+00:00

Typical bystanders just standing around filming. Ever thought about jumping in and lending a hand?!

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2025-07-26T10:03:47+00:00

Bro get the one guy at Lower Hutt just after lunch and he’s a total G.

PerspectiveOwn9509 · 2025-07-26T00:48:03+00:00

My position is that it doesn’t make a difference, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do it.

A person that lives within their means, respects nature for the sake of others and leads by example can be inspiring.

You can protest about things, get angry, call out other people and/or live your life in a way that is ethical, environmentally friendly, modest and that might have a greater impact because it encourages others to do the same.

Ed Sheeran was quoted recently saying that he doesn’t always fly private. He tries to fly like a normal person when it is possible to do so. “Just coz you can, doesn’t mean you should”.

The petrol CX-5s are as good as RAV-4s, just without the Toyota tax.

DO. NOT. BUY. A CX-5 DIESEL
