I did lol at the comment "Auckland City are well on their way to another New Zealand Football Championship grand final but long-time rivals Waitakere United" in the latest news item on the front page. It's only been 6 years.

Three for me, and two for them.

Not sure I get the KKK reference - is that just another jibe at Christchurch, the racist capital of NZ?

Mr Pedant here.
 
Your picture for Piney is more likely to be one of a fir (Abies) or a cedar (Cedrus) rather than a pine.
 
They are all conifers so you are in the right ball park.  Had you gone for a podocarp that would have been an outright fail.
 
Please try harder next time.
 
NCEA score = pass (for making an effort)
