Subscribed - of course. But not a dissimilar message to Chris Lockhead, Mike Maples - and others.
Go read their books.

I thought the new micro blog release would fix my problem. It didnāt.
On phone - a 09st longer than 600 you just canāt get the cursor to the bottom to write or edit.
Anyone else?
There is a play running in London called The Mousetrap. Barring āCOVID TIMESā it has been running for 72 years.
The musical equivalent has to be The Stones. Hats off and all that, but in both cases, longevity is surely the driver of success rather than the quality of material?
"To be real clear - I am NOT an Airline Analyst. I havenāt even played one on TV. But I do tend to look around and question claims that seem spurious. (And in my time down here, I do hear a large number of claims made that do not seem to add up)."
[]š My take on Chris Luxon. If you donāt know the name, thatās because heās no Jacinda Arden .. though he holds her office in Aotearoa](https://substack.philpin.com/p/was-he-any-good)
Written in response to a piece suggesting that Luxonās not doing a good job. Why? My point is that despite the press, Iām not sure he ever did a good job.
They donāt move too fast in Oneroa!
Dear Twitter ā¦ NO. Just NO.
We know who heās talking about ā¦ donāt we?
40 minutes waiting for the call center peep to pick up - only to be told that for what I need - I need to call a different number. I wouldnāt mind (ok - I do) - but it is to the other side of the world so stayed up late to do this - not got the energy to start all over again.
