From
the edition of Monday 16 November. As always, spelling, punctuation, grammar
and logic are exactly (you have no idea how carefully, how many times, I check
this) as printed in the Waikato Times.
These strange times
It seem that everything is in a state of flux and change. In the home and in the world from politics, local institutions to the oceans of the world and outer space. Surely there must be somewhere in this world that is not in conflict. So everywhere we have some disagreements.
History doesn’t look as violent now when you look and compare today’s problems. The ocean disputes in Asia, e.g. South China Sea, Russia and China, Russia - border disputes.
I’m beginning to think that humans are not such a peaceful race but find so many ways and means of creating struggle and skirmishes. Then you have the family partnerships and politics that keeps the world spinning.

So here are the Simple Image with their July 1968 #1 hit (in
New Zealand) “Spinning, Spinning, Spinning”. They were our Tremeloes.

I do wonder why our dear Ken's letters keep being published... any ideas?
Out of kindness, I suppose.
When I was at Metro, roughly 1987-93, we loved letters to the editor because they were free copy and we got lots of them, so they filled up the space between the ads. That was back when magazines got lots of ads. Happy days.
