Ghoulish Golf At Brewtown

Michael from Trentham

The Witching Hour has come to Upper Hutt's unique entertainment centre Brewtown.

It's two mini putt courses with ghostly, supernatural back drops and foregrounds. It's grim with a grin. And the actual putting "greens" are quality.

This new permanent attraction also serves local craft beer etc and is open up to midnight on most days.

So the putt courses add to the already established:
Ice skating rink
Go kart track
Ten Pin bowling alleys
Trampoline Park
Paintball field
Escape Rooms
Chipmonks Playland
Axe throwing
Farmers Market incl craft stalls

And of course also at Brewtown are the restaurants/cafes, craft beer and distillery -
Kereru
Boneface
Panhead
Te Aro
Wild Kiwi
Get Fixed
Fermented

Truly a conglomerate of entertainment that draws outsiders to Upper Hutt.

Same Again Dan

Michael from Trentham

Who else besides me has gotten annoyed well before now with TVOne weather presenter, Daniel Corbett constant use of the term: SAME THING AGAIN.

Dan uses this term at least two-three times on any evening he is doing the weather presentation. A year ago and it wasn't in his vocabulary.

Ok, NZ is not a huge country and therefore the weather region by region, city by city can be pretty similar. But to use the same terminology when there is either no need to or many alternatives, rankles me anyway.

His weather colleagues have never used this Corbett habitual three worded expression.

Another thing Dan does with so much more repetitiveness of late is the frimmp, woosh, voomb sounds of noise he makes to describe rain, wind, impending climatic conditions or whatever.

Come on Dan. You weren't doing or saying these things in the UK.

I'm sure you've seen it while doing your weekly shop... In fact, it may have even been you.

What do you think about people heading to the supermarket in their pyjamas?
