    Thanks mate. Maybe the real reason he didn't turn up was the wolf scared him off

    I have been overseas so was unable to vote against the increase in the Directors fees. Hope Grant filled out his form before he left.

    Yes thanks for speaking up Mr Beagle, I think he was dreading your well constructed question! He was pretty quick to move on!
    Hope you still holding a few SKO Mr Beagle they are on fire today!

    Thanks Fred and Joshuatree, it must have gone to spam. Despite receiving a similar request to vote for EBOS's AGM from Computershare in the last month.

    I was one of the bond holders that took the cash rather than shares or new bonds.
    Two reasons. Not keen on the board and the shares are too 'consumer discretionary' for me at this stage of the market.

    The winds of change are about to blow through the NZ car market. The storm driving these winds are off below the horizon but we will feel their force.

    Presidents Trump/Xi now stand on the edge of the wharf demanding a steep tariff payment to land cars. Part of their plans to make America/China great again.

    Car companies are now urgently trying to steer their way through this "greatness" while avoiding loosing their shirts.

    Can you think of a country whose leader is preoccupied showing off the baby, trying to anticipate Winston Firsts next zig or zag and tutoring her cabinet ministers how to behave so doesn't have time to slap car imports with tariffs.

    I'm sure the the same thoughts are rattling around inside the heads of car manufacturers executives. They will be making frantic calls to their assembly plants to put the steering wheel on the other side and ship em to NZ.

    This wall of cars will transform the second hand car market from a cascading market to a clearance market. Is now the right time to be setting up used car sales yards?

    PS. How likely is it that NZ is so glutted with used cars we will have to ship them offshore to other right hand drive counties such as Bangladesh?

    Given the number of drivers that get their licence out of a wheatbix packet I am pretty sure we can rightoff the wall of cars required to keep global car manufacturing afloat.

    When I went by Friday , there is a container “office” in the middle of the yard and a load of temporary fencing around it .No cars in sight or onsite.
