Happy APEC Day

Like a lot of people I got the day off. So lets join in thanks to Presidents Bush and Putin amongst other national leaders for coming to our fair city. For without them this public holiday would not be possible.

The city has become like a deserted town so that all the chin wagging can be done with a minimum of fuss. If only the protesters could take the day off. I’m not sure they even know what they are protesting against sometimes.

Instead of being crammed onto morning trains heading to the city, residents are crammed onto the F3 to get out of the city and to make the most of the long weekend. Apparently business is up by 30% in some areas in comparison to the same time last year.

Regardless of the negative effects people are whinging about it was good to have another day off.
