This week we're launching a new Thursday feature and each fortnight from today (alternating with NZ Sporting History) we'll be taking a look at a subject close to our collective kiwi hearts - starting with A and working out way down to Z.
Whether that's Pies, Forestry, xylophone clubs, or Zorbing... which was invented in Rotorua apparently.
Today we're kicking off with A for Avation.
If you've got any ideas, especially for the tricky letters send them to me on 2010 or Afternoons@rnz.co.nz
