#2195 ... Oh Deer

Not your every day image. The antlers of a deer ... or is it "the horns of a dilema". Trying to move a display deer head from the office to the Deer Industry Conference. A bit of a puzzle to get it to fit ... and will it be wearing a seat belt? Maybe it would look more impressive on the roof rack! Brandon Street.

#2194 ... Statuesque

The words of Katherine Mansfield will illuminate a little corner of Lambton Quay after a three-metre- high statue of the renowned New Zealand writer was unveiled last week. The statue, by sculptor Virginia King, is the fruit of three years work between the Wellington Sculpture Trust, the Katherine Mansfield Society and the Wellington City Council. It stands at the north west corner of Midland Park. At night it is lit up from inside. The steel figure of Wellington-born Mansfield is covered in passages of her writing. Even her hair is made up of shopping lists found in her journals.
