NEXT DEADLINE Friday 25th July 2014 11am July 2014 issue Photo courtesy of Rotorua Daily Post THE UNWANTED “URINAL” OOPS SORRY BOLT I was phoned recently by the Editor of the Daily Post asking my opinion on the so called “Bolt” being re-erected in Ngongotaha, I thought this guy had lost his marbles, who in their right mind would want to place a monstrosity like this in our beautiful village. Well I was wrong, apparently Progress Ngongotaha think it would be a good idea. Well after my scathing comments in the daily post being made public, I have received so many emails and comments, reinforcing my opinion. Why! Why! oh Why! would we want this when Rotorua didn’t. It used to take pride of place in the City Focus. But fear not people, I have found an owner, he doesnt know it yet. Let me quote from an article written by Kevin Page in the Daily Post Friday June 20th. “The Rotorua Area Electricity Authority was giving us a pressie to commemorate, er something so memorable I forget what it was. Before we knew what was happening it was unwrapped and in place. Smack bang in the middle of town, and we hated it. Except me” I went on to read that Kevin liked it so much that he tried taking it home to put on his front lawn after a “night out” I suppose it could look attractive after a night out on the ‘turps’ Well Kevin YOU CAN HAVE IT.
