| 1280301 | 2012-06-07 07:37:00 | Surprise, surprise! Its Winter and there has been a snow storm, broken power lines, icy roads. Get over it, try living in Russia or Alaska. The news media always makes Kiwis look like pathetic wingers who can't think for themselves, drive carefully Ice is slippery! etc. Its high time the news media stopped making Kiwis look like a bunch of helpless idiots. | mzee (3324) | ||
| 1280302 | 2012-06-07 07:43:00 | Its because NZ is the equivalent of a sleepy village, pretty much nothing happens so we talk about the weather. And sport. Though I'm sure the sudden outbreak of heavy sunshine would make the news in Alaska and Russia, if they have a working news delivery system outside of twice annual delivery by sleigh. |

| 1280309 | 2012-06-07 09:12:00 | Well Kiwi's are better in the snow than the English when it snows there the whole country comes to a standstill. I remember in the 80's when my train to school got cancelled because of the wrong snow on the lines. And anyway Alaska has huge amounts of sunshine in summer I know I've been | gary67 (56) | ||
| 1280310 | 2012-06-07 09:58:00 | And anyway Alaska has huge amounts of sunshine in summer I know I've been And I'm sure after 9 months of winter darkness those huge amounts of sunshine are news worthy...... |
