I just got back from my trip to Wellington last night... I attended the CTU conference as a delegate for the Dairy Workers Union... for those of you that do not live in New Zealand... and that is most of you... the CTU is the Union organisation that the Unions affiliate too to promote our political and national agendas... we have just elected a Labour Government in this country thats left wing to you Americans... so we went to a reception at parliment and hobb nobbed with the Prime Minister and her cronies... a group of us got invited down to the inner offices to party on... I got reasonably sloshed and spent the next day regreting it... the best thing I spose was eating out and not paying for it... the delegates to the conference ... numbering about 200... are a bunch of large ego union secretaries... organisers..
and political junkies which made for some interesting discussions... the organisation is also a magnet for lesbians queers and other assorted riff raff with adgendas to push.(imagine a whole bunch of Fiends all showing off their ass's) uppie just fitted right in there.. Wellington as a city is one that I really like because there are so many weird people there... think of Fiend again and a bunch of Jerks... we went out for dinner at this great resteurant called The Matterhorn.. the food was very good and the service professional... but all the staff were shaved head ..body pierced... tattoed faggots in army uniforms... all very pretty boys...I almost and I stress almost realised why faggots are gay... as usual I gambled as much and as often as I could and came home with an extra 60 dollars in my pocket... before& I came home this lady that I was traveling with and I
went and visited Te Papa which is our national museum... the day before they had had some peace protesters down there causing trouble... this woman I was with is a dreadlocked hippy type... sort of cool but straight people only see what they see... anyway there were three security gaurds at the door... well as we breezed in they sort of closed in on us... I did not realise what was going on and made the usual smart Uppie remarks... to the tune of ... " do you want to search our bags".. then we just carried on walking... It was not till later that I realised that they were serious... but that they did not have to nerve to pull us up...Dam in New Zealand we just do not put up with that security crap.. it's just such a safe country we live in... it never occured to me that we were on the verge of being arrested...
I hope it never comes to the point in this country where just because someone has dreadlocks and dress's sort of weird like that people automaticaly assumes you are dangerous...
Cheers Uppie your chat god (retired)
