It may be a cutesy pun to some but I think Wellington has its own identity, we don't need to borrow and bastardise some tacky sign from the US.

Then buy a bit of land and don't put a Wellywood sign on it.

I couldn't agree more Jonathan! What's next... The Great Wall of Palmerston North? The Arc de Dannevirke? The Pyramids of Methven?

I was stunned enough when the Wellington council decided to spend $20,000 on that Stock Exchange ticker down on the waterfront (which subsequently needed another few thou to fix). Hardly the epitomisation of Wellington's fantastic culture - and one of the most unlikely places any budding broker is likely to go for updates on their share prices.

Dammit... can't... edit... thread title!!!

The Great Wall of Palmy does have a certain ring to it though...

Beaten to it I'm afraid.

I always think I am in LA when I see it.

**Swoop** · 10th March 2010, 07:07

Perhaps a giant hobbit? An ork, perhaps?

Really, what's the point? It'll get blown away by the wind.
