@daphlawless @Kaukapakapa_Kid @urbanistfromwhk @NZMorningReport That's absolutely appalling! "Me coming out of Twitter hibernation to say so" appalling! Reeves is a crank of the worst kind.
@LinzLinz44 But I'm getting so much more done by not looking at Twitter or the news! It'll get boring eventually, but for now my job list needs attention.
@LewisHoldenNZ What a turd.
@LewisHoldenNZ I look forward to finding out if people like this ever find a way back to reality.
@treebelly1 @johnage @RichardHills_ Certainly months. I knew the bulk of the details in August via work channels. Covid delays/risks would have meant leaving a number of details until they could be sure resources were in place.
@PatrickHerd SHEEESH!!! I left a few days prior... Stay safe everyone.
@treebelly1 @johnage @RichardHills_ It was an AT page - I presume the Planned Rail Closures page, but I can't tell now as it is constantly updated. It was updated again in early December when Christmas/Boxing day were added.
@johnage Martinus in particular. They've redesigned the actual rail hardware too, as well as the ways to install them. I've heard Titan is a subsidiary of UGL - as id Auckland One Rail, so there might be some collaborative gains to be made.
@treebelly1 @johnage @RichardHills_ it was announced in late October.
@johnage @CityAklccrg Yes, the curves just before the platforms will go up from 25km/h to 40km/h. The CRL tunnel will range from 40-70km/h depending on the curves. Britomart tunnel is already 70km/h, but with turnouts at each end the only time you go over 30 is heading to the Eastern Line.
@johnage @dalespittle I think it'll be concrete slab track from Quay Park Junction all the way to Mt Eden by the time the CRL opens.
@johnage @dalespittle Most of the Britomart tracks were normal ballast and sleeper style. Only the complex turnouts were slabbed. Cheaper and more versatile - it has enabled the track layout between the tunnel and platforms to be rearranged a couple of times.
@johnage There's a containerised concrete mixer there, too! Chuck it on a wagon, mate!
@KristieAddison1 What's on your mind, Kristie?
It's quite something to look at the results of a national championship and see mistakes in almost every category. Something again to notice that the results have been quietly edited nearly a week after titles and trophies were presented and now they're *more* wrong.
@adoxography_ That's a good idea. I also need to wear them in more.
This is nice (even if I'm 4 years late to see it). Kim taught me to build and fly model planes and was instrumental (ahem) in my leap into building guitars. I remember meeting Carolyn Mills 30 years ago when Kim delivered a new harp to her. youtu.be/0e181F-mOlQ
@worried_mind I always wanted to have a whole king size block of chocolate to myself and eat it in one go. Never have - guilt comes along moments after the tummy starts asking questions.
