1445189 2018-01-21 21:02:00 It should have been "front Page" news instead of Page 2 small disclosure.

We are up there with "Rocket Man", and hope he doesn't take offense, seeing we were part of the 1951 UN defense of South Korea.

1445190 2018-01-21 23:05:00 But unfortunately they have sold out to the Americans.

With all the millions of dollars going into the Auckland property market merry-go-round, you would think that they could have got extra funding here without selling out.

Shame.
