It’s baby kissing time with all the candidates for Mayor and Council now locked and loaded. At least, I hope there will be a few babies kissed, for without political campaigning how do we, the people of the Wakatipu choose our elected representatives in October’s local body elections?

What a luxurious position the Warriors find themselves in. They have made the NRL finals with one week to spare. Anyone who has followed the ups and downs of this club for a while will know anything could happen from here. They could suddenly go cold and crash out of contention, or they could go all the way to the 2010 Premiership.

Dear Editor,

I would just like to put forward a few comments to those 15-16 year olds that entered a lot of houses between 2 and 5am last Tuesday night and stole from us and many others. Firstly well done to the police in recovering all of our things that were taken but to the offenders, my children are now nervous about being at home and double check doors and windows before they go to bed.
