ok, I've been told it's for Corporal Douglas Charles Hughes, 26 - the soldier who died in Afghanistan. His tangi will be held tomorrow at the Te Terai o Rahiri Marae in Pakotai, almost 50km northwest of Whangarei. Burial will follow at the nearby Te Hepara Pai cemetery.
May have something to do with the 8.7 magnitude earthquake near Aceh, but I really don't know.
I wondered the same thing as I drove to work. The only idea I had was for Sir Peter Tapsell, but I though his funeral was yesterday
I think it may be Grant Tilly maybe

Marmite.
With due respect though, RIP Corporal Douglas Charles Hughes.
It's been like this for a week now, i think.
