Williams Gallery
There is a great exhibition at the
Williams Gallery in Petone featuring a range of prints by
Michael Smither. Most of the art uses fairly abstract forms in a limited palette. I rate them highly, and don't be put off by the boat picture on the Williams website, because frankly I think there are far stronger pieces than it.
Very appealing too are the prices. Plenty to be had for under $1000, and if you're in the market to spend more, you can get a lovely big print.
And for the more sensitive amongst you, I didn't notice any paintings by
Patrick Williams starring lady bits. Praise be.

Hang dog
Somewhere along the Hutt Road (oh bugger it, I'll look up the address for you) - at 453 Hutt Road, there is an indoor rock climbing place called
Hang Dog. To be honest, scaling walls is not really my cuppa. Even so, this place was coooool, in an earnest way where the people wear pants with elastic around the bottom, and have good muscle definition and clear skin.
Why was I never sporty?
There is a room there which is like a bouncy castle inside a climbing heaven, and lots of ropes and men with harnesses around their bits.
Entertainment for all the family is what I'm saying.
And Pringles.
And Crunchies.
And fizzy orange stuff.
You get the gist.
