Yeah, because it will cost money and, you know, I'm disappointed too, but my ego isn't so bad that, you know, I think I need to have the prime space in the office building and all the rest of it. So I'll let it go. I've got more important things to do, things that are more important to ratepayers and residents. That's what I'm focused on. But, you know, as mayor, I entertain a lot of dignitaries, a lot of people who want to... see Wellington and see the best that Wellington's got. We have a building that's right on the waterfront. It would make sense, you would have thought, to have an office that the mayor can say, look, here's our amazing harbour, here's our amazing waterfront, here's the beautiful city that we've got. I won't have a chance to do that, but I'll find a way to do it somehow.
