It must have set a record, but it's one a South Canterbury family would surely much rather not have, after three of them were booked for drink-driving on the same night.The saga began about 12.15am on Saturday when a 15-year-old boy was stopped and arrested for drink-driving on State Highway 1 near Pareora. He blew 529 micrograms per litre of breath, more than three and a half times the youth limit.The teenager was taken to the Timaru police station for processing, where his mother was called to collect him. She was subsequently stopped and arrested for drink-driving on Craigie Ave at about 2.14am, after blowing 776 mcg, nearly twice the adult limit of 400.But it wasn't over there.The woman then rang her partner to come and pick them both up. He was stopped and arrested on North St at about 3am, when he blew 559mcg.

Super win to read, not super win that it happened.Glad they all got caught without running themselves and others into a ditch.
Flight delayed an hour and a half, due to dust cloud rather than earthquake. Now to figure out how to stretch half an hours free Christchurch airport wifi for that time.
Proposed, she said yes, easy part over.Now the bone shattering difficult part -- I have to now ask her father for permission. Should've done it first but a) he scares the shit out of me and b) wasn't sure when my next chance to propose the way I did was going to be.Imagine a Japanese man with traditional values that understands that his daughters career comes first and I have to be a billionaire to be an acceptable candidate.Shitting myself.
The best thing about Finance Minister Bill English\'s latest Budget is that it does finally signal a much greater role for the private sector in the New Zealand economy. And another step along the way to extract this country from the political cul-de-sac in which Helen Clark\'s Labour Government parked us.
