And we know ...Round and round in circles we go....<br /><br />And we know why there has been no decision about which parts of the city must be abandoned - they are waiting until Thursday so that John Key will be in Christchurch and the perfect photo opportunity to make the announcement. That man has such an ego. Why does he always travel with body guards - even in parliament? It is sickening that the mess is being politicised and people are still waiting for just a simple yes or no so they can get on with their lives.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-838644232340959537.post-47273134273589041592011-06-21T03:38:14.238+12:002011-06-21T03:38:14.238+12:00Nog even over de "narrow boats"Die zijn ...Nog even over de "narrow boats"Die zijn echt Engels in bleven alleen op de Engelse rivieren vracht vervoeren, maar in Nederland heb je <br />de Rijnaken die groter zijn en naar Duitsland, Zwitserland en Franrijk varen met hun vracht.

I hope people can get help quickly but it is true that every bureaucracy in the world is super slow.

We are Dutch, and as far as I know there are no narrow boats in the Netherlands. We lived in Indonesia because my father worked there.After the war we returned to the Netherlands and my father continued working but with another company.
