Well this is interesting... I bought a pushbike from Kmart and noticed on the receipt an adjustment of 0.1c... In other words, they skinned me a cent while i wasn't looking. Piece of advice, if you ever buy anything from a KMART in a place called St Lukes shopping centre, Mount Eden Auckland, watch everything like a hawk ;) Stuff on the shelves is deceivingly placed with respect to pricing and sometimes you will see stuff on the shelf that you innocently purchase, only to get home and find bits missing and a sticker on the backside of the product that says that bits are missing and therefore the item should be reduced price... Make no mistake, they are educated thieves. I did note, that most of the staff there were not Kiwi or Mauri but from other countries, beware.

OK the other stuff is local pics of Auckland. A nice rugby pitch near here with a decent bikepath round it. The monuments are in that park too, one most notable for Keith Hay who was the mayor who died in 1997. I read his bio with much amazement, seems he never advanced his education to degree level, just simply left school at 6th grade to chap in fenceposts for a local judge, the rest is history...

There was other stones too, something about a guy who ran 12 miles in an hour and got a medal or something.
