The Queen of Timaru
posted by Ana Samways at 1:13 pmIn Timaru the Caroline Bay carnival is a summer highlight. And a highlight within that highlight has to be the Queen of the Carnival pageant. Here’s a photo taken by the Timaru Herald as contestants line up for judging. Number four was the winner on the day, but if you ask us number 2 was robbed…
Thanks Angela from Auckland

This type of ridicule shows the low level we have reached as a society.”Angela” must think a lot of herself.

Number 2 is a strapping young lad! The others look like they have excluded him from the backstage fun. ..jealous of his man-boobs?

Number two could have at least made the effort and done something better with his hair.

Mr Beere, I rather think Number 2 has written an open invitation to ridicule. Go back to ringing talk-balk radio stations like all the other old, humourless people do.

I agree with Mrs Smith. You seem to be quite offended Edward Beere… do you fancy her?
January 18th, 2007 at 10:27 am
Pukeko. “She’s” not my type. Unlike you, I prefer women.
January 18th, 2007 at 10:32 am
Mrs Smith, What is “Talk-Balk” radio? You IQ is obviously as good as your spelling. Fortunately, I am entitled to my opinion as well as spiteful people like you.
January 18th, 2007 at 10:34 am
Mrs Smith. I see you are an Aucklander. That explains everything. Your attitude shows the difference between JAFFAs and the rest of NZ
January 18th, 2007 at 10:39 am
Pukeko? What sort of Nom-de-plume is that? Obviously, you were in the other room with spiteful people (like Mrs Smith) when they were handing out the brains.
January 18th, 2007 at 10:49 am
Probably intended as a nom de plumage. (Deep breath now Eddie)

I agree with Edward. This post seems like a mean cheap laugh. Lower than your normally high standard.
January 18th, 2007 at 11:48 am
And yet it’s interesting to see that Edward was quick to take cheap shots at Aucklanders, people’s IQs and even their chosen web-name.
It’s unusual and brave for someone with non-beauty pagaent looks – whether it’s a he or she I don’t know – to enter a contest. I think that’s the point. Edward seems convinced that no. 2 is a he. How insulting if he’s wrong.

Eddie I think you’ll find its actually, JAFA. An acronym for Just Another Fantastic Aucklander…
January 18th, 2007 at 1:16 pm
Is it too late to weigh in with a cheap shot at Timaru?
January 18th, 2007 at 7:25 pm
Mr Beere; you wrote, “You IQ is obviously as good as your spelling.” Obviously, your IQ is as good as your grammar.
January 18th, 2007 at 8:51 pm
wow that’s something you don’t see very often, there are Asians in Timaru?
January 19th, 2007 at 9:25 am
Mrs Smith. I’m not the one the low life here. Your spiteful nature is what it is.
January 19th, 2007 at 9:46 am
Okay kids, settle down and stick to the topic.
January 19th, 2007 at 9:56 am
Jojo. I completely agree with you you. I praise anyone who tries their best. This is why I applaud no 2 for being there. I would like to think the people of Timaru consider the WHOLE person when looking at the contestants. I hope people would be a bit thoughtful before taking cheap shots.

Steven…Dad…she started it! How about raising my allowance?
January 19th, 2007 at 10:00 am
I’m not Anti-Auckland. I’m just anti the spiteful Aucklanders who seem to make the most noise.
January 19th, 2007 at 10:15 am
Loving what began as a defence for No. 2from Eddie and quickly turned into spiteful, personal attacks from all sides. Well done. Keep up the entertaining insults.
January 19th, 2007 at 7:14 pm
Edward Beere! Just between us, I always thought you were robbed too. Those were the days. I’ve still got my sash

Hi there, number 3 from the photo here, lets just be grateful that number two wore that dress, she was going to wear her daughter’s dance dress which was apparently ’see thru’. She enters every year..they’ve cut the picture short though..there was a REAL stunner next to her
