That's right, folks: next week there will be no Ad Hoc online, due to extracurricular activities being undertaken by Your Correspondent.
But have no fear – regular, scheduled programming will return in early August.
In the meantime, you can keep yourself amused in a variety of ways. If you haven't yet seen the video of the tools longboarding down the motorway, click here. To watch a tortoise helping a brother out, click here. To watch a tortoise getting verrrrry confused, click here. And to see the most musical typewriter in the world, click here.
If that's not enough, you can participate in the Name That Toaster competition. Your Correspondent recently acquired a new toaster. (New to Your Correspondent, not new-new like just-bought-it-from-the-WareWhare-new.) It desperately needs a name. The toaster is male (I've checked) and his previous owner was Phil, so he can't have that name. Post suggestions below or email to adhoc@nbr.co.nz. Best suggestion wins a prize*.
*Invisible bottle of wine. Prize offer only available on February 30.
Toaster, missing plastic handle to keep yourself from being electrocuted, needs name so he can find himself in life. Please help.
