    I think everyone decides to make lame digs about Wellingtons weather cos deep down they know that everywhere else in New Zealand sucks complete arse in comparison to the best little capital in the World.

    It's great, but a bit difficult to enjoy when you're soaking wet and trying not to get blown away in a gale. We went back to Lower Hutt one Christmas and after yet another day of drizzle my brother (who barely remembers NZ) asked why we hadn't come in summer. But if you don't give a shit about the weather then all good 👍.

    Waaaiiittt a minuuute.... No one has pulled you up on this? Back?

    And as for a guy whose most common handle is "ACT" giving Wellington grief....

    Bones you're so triggered ( understandably so ) you've mentioned the wrong ferner. If I was @Rancid-Schnitzel I'd demand some sort of apology.....

    What? Sorry you townies aren't able to comprehend referencing 2 different posts.

    I'm still waiting on RS' explanation though. He conveniently passed over that part of my post.

    "The rankings look at purchasing power, safety, health care, cost of living, property price to income ratios, traffic commutes and pollution."

    Helps when they don't include the weather. Finland regularly features at the top of these things, but fucked if I'd want to live there.

    @Machpants well, where-ever you are, that double sided ladder to nowhere looks extremely useful and in no way representative of an RD post code....

    What explanation do you need? I don't think I kept a journal from my holiday in 1990. I recall it rained most of the time and every train station into Wellington was covered in graffiti.

    I guess that's possible if you like ice baths.

    @ACT-Crusader haha this comment makes me think you've either been to Palmy or Wellington, but not both because they are nothing alike.

    Been to both and have been living with the regret ever since

    Because I was born and lived in Lower Hutt. Unfortunately I haven't made the pilgrimage back for almost 30 years. I hope it's improved since then.

    Queensgate is now a Westfield and the Grumpy Mole has closed. It's delightful.

    @Bones Ahhh Queensgate such a delightful experience. To be fair though the earthquake damage has completely shat on that place.

    Speaking of which, you can't beat a wendy's cheese dog. Got to be better than beef on a hot plate.
