LETTER: The Latte Show | Auckland Opinion | Local Voices from Auckland, New Zealand

Given a little more time than usual, I sat down to read your Aucklander and became quite lost in your reporters' accounts from coffee lounges across the region. Their observations are quite entertaining in places, but also, I thought, quite insightful. Could it be that they provide more information about the reporters' than the cafes and their clientelle? Hee hee.
Who else, for example, would liken the Hardware Cafe in Titirangi to a Greek forum? Or take the point of view of a sparrow in Howick?
I do wonder what the proprietors of these premises must have thought when the pages were brought to their attention, as surely they must have. I'm quite tempted to go visit some of these places to see if they have laminated the story and placed it up in a prmionent place as they do the favourable reviews.
As I say, I was quite engrossed by the article so congraulations to you for presenting it. I am left to wonder what will be next, a rodent's view of our drainage systems; comparing Aotea Square to the hanging gardens of Babylon; a seagull's experience of swooping under the harbour bridge?
I await with interest.
