The Best of Auckland?

I realise it’s easy to be critical. And I realise I have a tendency to adopt a sarcastic tone that doesn’t reflect well on me. But I couldn’t let this pass.

I was just in collecting an alteration from the fine people at Meg’s when I spotted this on the desk.

I admire Metro and Green & Black’s for running a competition that celebrates the best that Auckland has to offer.

But I do think that when organising an Auckland-centric event, it’s important to actually be able to spell ‘Auckland’. And if you’re going to run an event that celebrates excellence, it’s important to be, sort of….excellent?
