I commented several months ago about Mr Guy not smiling and was informed that there was nothing to smile about in council... may be he has something to smile about now that one particular member of council was not re-elected but given a serious vote of no confidence by the electors of the Welcome Bay/Te Papa ward!!!

Sorry, an old photo taken by Sunlive. The photo should have shown me 'throwing my toys out of the cot!' I lost my Monitoring Committee Chairperson role to Bill Faulkner, and to add insult to injury, now his deputy chair. LOL. Bit like turning the pages for a pianist when I was the pianist! I don't think my earlier advocating for equal remuneration and relinquishing of reserved car parks won me any friends! The remuneration and expenses discussion, coupled with the allocation of committee roles was certainly more telling than 'pre-election platforms and speeches'.
