headline in this months Carterton Crier is "Our Bustling Events Centre"
Only item in the rag with no by-line!
nobody I know from Old Carterton Wanted it and they certainly didn't want $2 million bucks spent on doing up the piece of road outside so it looks like something out of house and garden.
So who exactly is this "OUR'?
The morons impressed by something BIG or the ones who want to pander to second rate transient show and tells.
The 13 people receiving an income from this white elephant?
The people of Carterton who have lived here all their lives and now find their rates bill increasing by orders of magnitude and likely to force them out of their family homes while immigrants strut round thinking they are so fucking marvelllous turning Carterton into a Courtenay place lookalike.
All the so called events could be held in a hall a quarter of the size.
Furthermore all those who pushed hardest are the ones you never see in the Library cum plunkett cum toy library cum frigging madhouse when all the shriekers gather in the foyer!
One person/councillor told me that we didnt really even need a library because she knew everything from a set of encyclopedias.
HUH?
so where did those writers gather their knowledge from?
And why is photocopying 60c a sheet?
and why are the candidates for this years council election ignoring the crummy state of the footpaths. the ever increasing dogshit and the grit on the pavements.
They too busy working out which monuments they will erect for themselves when they get their hands on the budget.

"The Mighty Quinn (Quinn The Eskimo)"
Everybody's building the big ships and boats
Some are building monuments, others jotting down notes
Everybody's in despair, every girl and boy
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here everybody's gonna jump for joy
Oh come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn.
Oh you know I like to do just like the rest
You know I like my sugar sweet but guarding fumes and making haste
You know it ain't my cup of meat
Everybody's out the trees, feeding pigeons all under the limb
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here the pigeons gonna run to him
Oh come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn.
A cat's meow and a cow's moo to you know I, I could recite them all
Just tell me where it hurts you, honey, and I'll tell you who to call
Nobody can get asleep, there's someone on everybody's toes
When Quinn the Eskimo gets here everybody's gonna want to doze
Oh come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn.
