Ok, so maybe that’s a slightly inflammatory headline, using the WordPress engine to create a website that’s being hosted by a third party is fine, but using the free WordPress blogging system sucks big time.

Help, I Need Babysitter...
My wife is away in Christchurch and our usual babysitter doesn't do Wednesdays... anyone free to look after three perfect little angels on the 23rd of April?
UPDATE: I've found a babysitter, all I need now is someone to go with - I mean it would be terrible to waste the spare pass....
UPDATE 2: I'm taking a lucky girl on a date with me... I wonder who it could be...

NZ man 'used hedgehog as weapon'
This just in from BBC world....
A man in New Zealand has been charged with using a hedgehog as a weapon, the New Zealand Herald has reported.
Police said William Singalargh, 27, had hurled the hedgehog about 5m (16ft) at a 15-year-old boy.
"It hit the victim in the leg, causing a large, red welt and several puncture marks," said Senior Sgt Bruce Jenkins, in the North Island town of Whakatane.
It was unclear whether the hedgehog was still alive when it was thrown, though it was dead when collected as evidence.
The police spokesman said the suspect was arrested "for assault with a weapon, namely the hedgehog."
Mr Singalargh is due to appear in court on 17 April. If convicted, he faces up to five years in prison.
