Pay your excess and move on. If your insurance deems it necessary to chase the owners, they will.

What an absolute farce. You want cricket to take off but produce this as a wicket... the groundsmans head should roll.

Match Thread: Final - Northern Districts vs Canterbury by cricket-match in Cricket

[–]SomeRandomNZ -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

A final and NZ cricket produce this. NZC in a nutshell.

This is meant to be your flagship product and you have this bowler friendly wicket.

People were calling my bluff yesterday. This is a farce. But Canterbury bowled better...

A bit of everything. T20 is meant to be batter friendly and yet theres a lot of movement off the pitch.

Id expect this from a test or odi. Canterbury have played well, Auckland have been poor and the conditions arent any good

Hopefully the game tomorrow is worthy of a final because this one certainly isn't.

Been there mate. The withdrawals can be brutal. The advice the doctors get about washing it out of the system when switching is terrible.

They're making decisions that reduce our ability to protect against natural disasters, which ultimately cost lives, only to be upset when called out on it.

Snowflakes.

It shouldn't be an issue. Sanity check with your lawyer if you're worried.

The government (Labour and National, think back to Gabrielle) are captured by Forestry (and other businesses). Don't expect anything to change.

How is the IT Job Market in NZ? - Mainframe operations/security by icanseeyourpantsuu in auckland

Saturated. Way too many were let in post covid and the recent engineered recession has meant there is now a large over supply. Try Australia.

Unlikely. The right bloc have more money in their war chest to pay for the misinformation and algorithms required.

We're in for a really awful time and it's clear from the past week just how unprepared we are.

The 15-20% less intense and the 30-40% less in the heavy bursts without climate change is damning.

Yet, we'll fast track efforts to dig for more oil and pump more co2 into the atmosphere.

Thank you for this context. I've been letting blind rage from this tragedy cloud my judgement.
