This news is like four days old - Wellington had it's Ranfurly Shield challenge of the year on Friday and I missed it completely, and we only lost by one point to the fecking Cantabs. That's the only thing about sports coverage over here in Oz, there is NO rugby coverage at all at this time of the year. AFL, rugby league, cricket, even soccer for god's sake, and no rugby. And this year I have been bad and haven't been regularly visiting the sites back home for the rugby as well. For that I partially blame the election, has been sucking up too much of my 'back home' attention.

Special votes count will be released sometime between Friday and Sunday, difference of twenty thousand votes between Labour and the Nats, with ten times that number to be counted. Am kind of wish listing that the Nats will get in the lead, but if they can just get enough to go equal with the Labourites in parliamentary seats, fingers crossed.

And for the first time ever, the human world has had a vision of a live giant squid, after Japanese scientists put bait on a one kilometre long fishing line, with cameras attached at the bottom. Now if only drift nets could go that low LOL, no I am not going to make any comments about Japanese whaling policy...
