while we are about it...

 the Carterton events centre was a collossal waste of money right from the start.

the cost cutting and cheeseparing meant that there is no kitchen and a host of extraneous activites were designed and crammed into what should have been a separate library from the council administration offices that seem to have taken over the available space.

the aquisitions seem to be house and garden mags anyway. all the good books have gone and the staff dont read. I know. I have asked them.

the library itself is staffed by people from out of town whose jobs were never advertised and seem to have been deemed above manual labour by whoever selected them in the first place. nobody knows who they are.

the events centre has eaten all the money that would have payed for the new sewerage works several times over and the promoter of the whole shabby deal left town soon after.

I am not going to leave my reference library to Waicol at the moment should I pass soon
