Success!















What better way to celebrate success than with a lemon meringue pie cooked for you (me) by one's (my) son.
There is no better way, I can tell you!
(Thanks very much to those who voted for me - I will do everything I can to make Southland a better place - I'm hard-wired to do that, and a seat on the Council is a big help along that road.)

    I can see why you might be LYAO - for one, your prickly opponent, Mr Nettleton, appears to have been mulched.

    Congratulations - great to hear.

    (If I thought one of my son's would cook me a lemon meringue pie like that I'd be tempted to stand in the local body elections too!)

    Congratulations, Rg. I might differ from some of your ideas, but I have real admiration for folk with the fortitude to stand up and be counted. It is folk like yourself that keep democracy alive.
    I guess you wont be getting a call from KS - banned again/still I see. Well that is democracy!

    Thanks very much, Fred, I appreciate your comments.
    Banned, again? KS bans me every day. I must be the most-banned leftwing commentator in the country, and yet, I such a reasonable, affable fellow...

    Congrats Robert - I can see our views differ in some ways, yet are the similar in others, just wish I had more time to contribute to discussions.
