Then we all looked shocked when he pissed off with the float....

Anyway - Enough of that BS - Whats it like at home? - Its been 12 years or more, is K Road still sleazy?
I'm mostly based in Asia these days and don't spend much time in NZ any more either but you know how it is - it doesn't change much. More Asians and Auckland property prices are through the roof - you won't get much change from a million for a reasonable house in a decent area. Every time I come back there are more strip malls and worse traffic. K Road is getting pretty gentrified now and is one of the hubs for annoying indie hipster types and there are a bunch of trendy nightclubs there now. DTM / The Staircase is now a flash multi level venue called The Studio. There is still a small amount of street prostitution around K Road but since prostitution was legalized in NZ, 99% of it has moved into private brothels run out of suburban houses, and there are no brothels on K Rd any more that I'm aware of. Recently a new upmarket strip club opened on the corner of K and Pitt St http://www.calendargirls.co.nz/ and the topless Las Vegas girl sign is still there. I'm back home right now for Christmas and the weather is awesome... Greetz from the 09
