Let us divert a little from the excesses of martinis and penis pumps to tell you that the Dalai Lama is coming to Wellington! (is that the first time someone has used "Dalai Lama" and "penis pump" in the same sentence?)
He accepted an invitation from the NZ Tibetan Buddhist community and will show up next year.

A public talk and Buddhist teachings are scheduled in Auckland on June 17 and 18, and address to an audience in Wellington on June 19.

So keep that free in your diaries people. The last time he was here was in 2002 when he met Jim Anderton and Phil Goff, lucky bastard.
