Interview on City Finances: Done
Will let you know when it airs
I did an interview alongside Rod Oram this morning for the All About Auckland show which airs on Monday evenings on Sky (although soon Freeview). The topic was City Finances in light of the Mayor handing down his presentation of the Draft 2015-2025 Long Term Plan and some realities the City needs to face in this discussion.
I have previously been on the All About Auckland Show talking transport and South Auckland (The Southern Initiative).
I will let you know when the interview is up.
HAPPY FATHERS DAY
My First Fathers Day Too
A Happy Fathers Day to all the dad’s out there in New Zealand (and across the World) today. A special mention to Fathers who might no longer be with us as well.
A special mention to two of my long-time friends Cliff and Ben who like me became dad’s for the first time this year 😀
A few sleepless nights at first but it sorts itself out quickly enough and before long we wonder where did the time go.
And with the weather forecast to be an absolute cracker today in Auckland it will make for a great day to be out and about the City.
So a Happy Father’s Day to All – and we shall see you all tomorrow
