I get really annoyed seeing large buses travelling around Auckland's suburbs with one or two people (sometimes none) on board. What a waste of fuel, road-user charges, etc. Surely the bus firms must be able to tell on what routes and at what times a small bus or minivan would suffice. Might help to keep our constantly rising rates bills down a little.

I would like to commend Brian, Chris and Sheela at the NZ Maritime Museum. I was photographing my son at the wheel of the ferry Takapuna when my phone fell in between the wall and window of the ferry and became stuck. With the help of these kind people, my phone was retrieved ... but I did not manage to get the photo of my son. Otherwise a very enjoyable afternoon.

Why do people make no effort to speed up after pulling out in front of you while driving? It forces me to adjust my speed rapidly or brake hard. Basic road codes seem to have been forgotten of late.
