things we have lost in Christchurch

Don from Parklands - Marshlands

The frogs in Hagley Park, (wonder why we never see UFO's nowadays? cellphones are a great deterrent?). Perhaps they were worried at being hit by those disc golf frisbees - saw one in Queensberry Park yesterday, or maybe it was a UFO I couldn't be sure.
Childrens dentistry is another Neighbourly topic at the moment and if the council doesn't fix the road cavities soon, I wouldn't be surprised to see an adult "pothole golf" appearing as the latest craze. No great outlay on clothes, just a 'high visibility jacket', distance to golf course - right outside your gate, number of holes replaced by 'round the block' and back home to a hot coffee or a more spirited beverage of your choice, handicaps - traffic - well play it by torchlight when there aren't too many 4 wheel critters on the loose attacking peoples fences.
So if anyone wants to contribute or comment to this post I place no hijacking or hijilling restrictions nor do I apologise for drawing your attention to HIJEAN as this is a sanatised post. My friend felt it was better that he didn't appear as some people are very sensitive to his humourous outlook on life.

ps the frogs were last seen at the Ellerslie Flower Show and the lack of anything to fill that vacancy is another cavity in our heritage..
Cheers all and looking forward to those holiday selfies. Not politically correct to say 'holy day' or any politicising comments.
