H-bomb dropped at Petre

The eighth letter of the alphabet is causing all sorts of strife down there.

The local yokels of the Pakeha variety are adamant, they want no H in their town, sorry, city.

The Maori however want the H that was stolen before 1854 returned.

The council says NO!

The Geographic Board says YES!

The businesses say NO it will cost us lots of money!

The Health Board quietly changed to using an H some years ago.

There is some serious frothing at the mouth going on.

What is the big deal? Put the dratted H in next time the stationery gets ordered and in 10 years you will wonder what the fuss was about.

Surly the good folk of Whanganui (Wanganui) should be worrying about other things like river pollution, gangs and that other troublesome letter, P.
