Description: A kiwi stands gloomily at the top of a cliff preparing to fall backwards into the recession below. Text reads 'The New Zealand economy steadies itself... preparing for a backward somersault, twisting two-and-a-half turns, double-dipping tuck in the pike position... or as us common folk call it - a fall'. Context - Finance Minister Bill English has confirmed the government is concerned about a double dip-recession, echoing Prime Minister John Key's caution in the face of weak employment figures and a fast-slowing Australian economy.

Description: The Australian (Diamonds) netball coach Norma Plummer tells the cartoonist that she is a Plummer (play on 'plumber') and fixes things that are broken - like her team. The cartoonist has suggested that a 59-40 Silver Ferns win in the second test of the current series - a 19 point loss for the Australians - looks like impropriety - 'I mean the TAB odds... a bit of fixing...' Text above reads 'Norma-l behaviour'. Norma Plummer was succinct in her summing-up; "It was a bit of a hiding, actually," she said. Reference to the Pakistani cricket match-fixing scandal. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).

Description: The cartoon shows a range of mountains with, in the foreground, a large sign that reads 'Queenstown Winterfestival B.Y.snOw'. A second version has the sign read 'Queenstown Winterfestival B.Y.Snow'. Context - Last Friday Coronet Peak turned on its extensive snow-making set-up to get the hill prepped to open on June 4. Coronet Peak needs at least 72 hours of continuous cold air temperatures and low humidity levels to make enough snow before next Saturday - it can pump out 24 tonnes across the mountain every minute. The suggestion is that there will not be enough snow and people should BYO snow. Two versions of this cartoon are available Quantity: 2 digital cartoon(s).

(Used for intelligence gathering...good luck to them there!) Band C describes the occupant'. Context - Government sources told the Sunday Star-Times that ministerial homes and offices have been swept, sometimes secretly, and at least one listening device found. The searches, by Government Communication Security Bureau (GCSB) staff, were done amid fears surveillance devices had been planted ahead of the November election.
