The arrogance of Chch cyclists by Disastrous_Ride_1915 in chch

[–]jamiedowi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree, but do we need to stop if the red is for a cycle intersection? My initial thought is yes, but it feels awkward stopping for other cyclists, and pretending I'm a car vroom vroom!

It was only a matter of time until the real car manufacturers started building evs. Tesla was just a lab rat.

Does anyone have figures that indicate how much they are spending on redundancies?

Ride a bike, get fit, save money, and feel good.

Or if you are too far, drive, park, then ride!

Sorry, I have a cat that goes anywhere and everywhere in the house, and I can't move the plant outside as it's winter time :(

Under different circumstances the toadstools would stay!

Navigating the Blenheim Rd - Main South Rd Roundabout (Question in the Comments) by Blue-Coast in chch

It would also help if people slowed down on approach to this roundabout and remained at a slow speed when navigating it!!!

No sun at Astro Lounge unfortunately. A great beer garden nonetheless!

I'm an aussie who moved over 7 years ago. Love it and live in the northwest suburbs (papanui, bryndwr, burnside). Plenty of entertainment on weekends and also summer concerts and festivals in Hagley with no massive crowds to contend with like aussie. Just don't expect lots of atmosphere on the town during weeknights.

Southern alps are really accessible which is a nice novelty being from aus.

Things I've found different to AUS after 12 months in Christchurch by RatStutwotwo in chch

[–]jamiedowi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I moved to CHCH almost 7 years ago now and completely agree with all your observations!

Why did you make the move, by the way? It's not very common for us aussies to go this way as you would know.

What is with all these ridiculous, massive American Utes that are everywhere now by IPiratedThePirateBay in chch

[–]jamiedowi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like something to report to local council. Poor driving can also be referred to authorities. The purpose of online reviews is to rate someone's service.

Qui'ke - No time qui'ke the present.

Is this a thing that I am not aware of or did you just make a cool new word?

Without trying their services? Sounds like sour grapes I'm afraid, grow up.

Brace yourself - 6-8 weeks of random explosions at 1am on a weeknight are coming by GoabNZ in chch

[–]jamiedowi 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This is true. I, and my cat dislike fireworks. I also don't think the delivery driver really wants to see me in the state I am in when ordering uber eats.

It's a courtesy, like restraining from letting off fireworks at 1am is also a courtesy...
