Yep, that's the sort of person who these malls are such a draw card. Takes on the awesome responsibility of having kids, has 7 of them in fact. Trouble is he's a lazy fucker who's idea of "looking after the kids" is to put them in front of a TV. Why have the kids if you aren't going to raise them properly. Get thee to the mall you bowel infected pond scum.Originally Posted by crashe

mate of mine had a theory about the traffic...
area - mt wellington = fobsville
shop - the warehouse = fobmagnet
the warehouse - opening day specials = fob day out
day - thursday = dole day

Things will surely get a lot better when they extend the commuter train system to there.
Well I assume that's what's going to happen.....

The place was put there originaly because of the rail.Actualy the Yanks offered to put in the canal to the Manukau for nix just to make their shipping easier...lost opportunity there eh?
Forum whore
Didn't they offer to dig that little trench just north of Wellington too? Transmission something...?

Now the pussy authorities evacuate a suburb and call in the bomb squad when they find a grenade in a collection

Was it them that dug the trench just south of Wellington?

When we were kids we roamed the whole area on our pushbikes looking for the ''ammo dump'' - our Holy Grail.We never found it,but grenades and 303 shells we pretty common in the area....no mother lost her marbles if she found one in a school bag.
It did exist as my mentor told me,he was there when the Yanks left of course.They couldn't leave everything behind,we couldn't afford to pay for it,and as freebees it would wreck our ecconomy as well.So they loaded as much as they could onto their ships...he says they went out past Rangitoto and just drove tanks and bulldozers,jeeps and motorcycles off the sides of the ships.He said he'd actualy seen them drive a bully off the side for an anchor.Then they went out to Mangere,it was just flat waste land then - they dug huge trenches a mile long and just poured their equipment in,he saw lathes still in their packing crates,motorcycles,weapons,all buried.I think some of it was dug up some years ago when they needed to do some development there.The Yanks were all about waste,they had everything and just threw it away.

I always cringe when I see old footage of perfectly serviceable WW2 planes being pushed off aircraft carriers at the end of the war.
Any idea of the actual location past Rangitoto? That would be some good diving
Best Frenemy you could have!
and when you read this you suddenly realise that what you heard wasn't a one off.
Went on a cruise to the islands, with P&O. Can't remember which country, either Vanuatu or Fiji, but there is a well known area called Million Dollar Point. Fantastic Diving etc.
Story goes on a similar vein. Wanted to sell equipment to british/french, and got down to 5c in the dollar. British/French were greedy, and figured the US had to leave the equipment behind (can't return equipment to US, under their supply agreement), so refused. Orders came from Washington to dump the lot, so the americans built a pier out into the water, and chucked a brick on the acclerator.
However, having dumped all the equipment, they managed to create an unofficial reef, which was not charted. It sunk two ships () before something was done, and now it is a fantastic location for diving.
Forum whore
I know people who have dived on that reef.There was a movie doing the rounds about 23 yrs ago (I remember because my daughter was crawling around the theatre)I forget what it was called,but home movie of some guys world trip - around the Islands on a sailing ship,then right up through Africa in a DAF.Anyway they stopped on this deserted island and found all the abandoned US equipment - the fuel drums were even full,so they poured fuel into some trucks and drove around wrecking them.They just walked out of the Pacific War leaving everything behind.Be nice to be rich eh?

Vanuatu evidently (thanks google). I wanna go....

Some enterprising kiwi evidently dragged out 14 bulldozers after 3 years, gave them a bit of a clean and sold them to the aussies.
Need new round thangs!
