We've reached 250 attempts at this NZ school lunch quiz. Still only a single score of 15/15 (unsurprisingly). Thanks to all who submitted themselves to this rustic visual treat

The lunchslop will haunt my dreams.

An image selection catpcha complete with "I'm not a robot" box.
It says "select all squares with Rustic Potatoes", and an array of nine not very appetising school lunch pictures is below. Some of these do in fact contain Rustic Potatoes.

Lots of things are now called "AI" when they are just plain old computing in the same way that this was called a "COMPUTER BOOK" when it was just a plain old magnet

THE AMAZING MAGIC COMPUTER BOOK of FOOTBALL from the early 1970s. Each page featured 12 images and only one right answer to the question.
INSTRUCTIONS
The computer will answer all the questions in the book.
Let the computer check your answers or supply the solution to questions which you are unable to answer.
The questions and problems are on the left hand pages. Put the pointer on the computer disc to the number of the question. Now insert the special bookmark, close the book and tap gently on the cover. The bookmark ensures that you can quickly find the appropriate page. On referring to it you will find that the computer arrow is pointing to the correct answer on the key page.

Interesting to have the doors open 2 hours after the event starts. Does this mean you can watch the FPC game for nothing and then they chuck you out? @alicesoapbox.bsky.social

Extract of ticket to the NPC & FPC double header today. Point of interest is that
Event starts 11.00am
Doors open 1.00pm

The new Tauranga Library building opens on Friday 16 October (that's the building in the background of the image). Hopefully this is the start of the regeneration of the city centre with the museum construction well under way

Woke up at 1.30am this morning #NoZzzzzealand and put on the Open golf to see how it was looking - ended up watching until Ryan Fox hit the winning putt. A truly remarkable win to birdie the tricky final hole to seal a one shot win. Not often I say this but "GOLF ROCKS!!"

That's the best half of rugby I've seen the All Blacks play in quite a while. Plus Tupou Vaa'i is the new Dane Coles - could start a fight in an empty room.

To get more respect from the players, the referee for the upcoming World Cup final should dress like the ref from the first final back in 1930. And be an absolute unit ....

Reflecting back, I'm not sure the World Feed commentator greeting the winning goal in a World Cup semi-final with "Awwwww, England are in trouble now" is the neutral vibe we should be getting.

It sounds like a quarter of the crowd are there just to watch Lamine Yamal given the gasps and roars every time he touches the ball. He actually looks a bit laboured, not at full speed to me.
