UH Festival Not So Springy
Upper Hutt's Spring Festival Street Fair today (Saturday Sept 9) seemed a little more on the down-market this year that it usually is. Apart from the stalls which lacked the Martinborough, Petone, Newtown, Thorndon grandeur, the singing from the two entertainment sites when I was around , was pretty low key as to want to pass by rather quickly.
Maybe I was feeling to effects from an All Blacks team which underperformed on the world's greatest stage only a few hours earlier.
However the weather was great - tee-shirts and shorts. Yay
Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?
