2:10 Dunedin Cruise Image - Craig Harris
It's a safe harbour that's welcomed ships for hundreds of years. But the antisocial behaviour on the wharves of Port Chalmers that we've been hearing about in the news is putting visitors off. And local tour operators have been banned by port authorities as a result. This coming season tour operators will no longer be allowed on the wharf, after complaints of operators fighting, abusing passengers, and even sleeping in their cars.
Cruise New Zealand chairman Craig Harris says it's a step in the right direction for Port Chalmers.

3:30 Re-capturing Duncan - Lisa Thompson - When Duncan the kokako went AWOL two years ago from the Waitakere Ranges the good folk at Ark in the Park assumed the poor bird was dead. Until a Glendowie resident looked out her window and saw … a kokako in a jacaranda tree! No one is quite sure how this rare forest bird made it all the way across Auckland, but we're on the hunt to bring Duncan home

4:06 On The Panel today are Michelle Boag and Brian Edwards - the Fluoride debate moves to Auckland; the sports coach who called the refs cheats and how our moments of expostulation now are writ large by media; the dangers of exercise - well not all exercise but some of the strenuous exercise in present vogue; that book for young adults with the warnings on the cover, and assorted other chats as time allows.
