1700: Everyone here is on their feet. Irish flags are being waved furiously, frantically… “Ka-De! Ka-De!” For a brief moment there is silence as Taylor is sent spinning, videogame style by a slashing right, and then there’s more silence when Taylor falls to the floor. Both boxers on the attack now … it’s going to the judges.

 

1702: The crowd is apprehensive. They think Taylor has won, but they can’t be sure. There’s a wait … and then “Ladies and gentleman, the winner by a score of 10 points to 8, and Olympic champion … Katie. Pandemonium. Absolute pandemonium.

 

Take it away, Spands.

Documented on the Tumblr Little Hands, the (presumably Kiwi) creator(s) say:

In upcoming weeks a series of little bronze hands will be installed in central Wellington. In walkways, shortcuts and places people pass on their paths to work or school. Their purpose is to hold offerings. Anonymous tokens of generosity or thoughtfulness. My intention is that others will use the little hands too, for leaving small items.

Mmf.
