I think we may live not far from each other – no I won’t bother looking further. I do appreciate seeing what we used to see many years back but seldom do today – kids and families out on bikes together, people out walking together. With luck, and some effort, aside from a chance to reset our society and our financial/trade priorities we will also see families drawn a lot closer together, and stronger communities as a result have having few to talk to but our neighbours across the fence.

I must say your pictures of Vivian St were something of a shock to me. I am not there often but I don’t think I can ever recall seeing it so quiet. Even at the quietest times I’ve travelled that road there’s always been at least a dozen vehicles close to me, hiding anything else that maybe ahead or behind. I don’t recall ever being on it and not being aware there must be at least a hundred other vehicles along it’s length. Maybe on some late-night visits to Wellington Hospital there’s been less.

Anyway, thanks for sharing. I won’t agree with all of your posts but this one I definitely appreciate.

We could take the Philippine approach and just shoot them!
I’m sure that may get the desired approach, however it would give the gun lobbyists all they need to be relevant.

Only a punctual unique would mow the lawns on properties that are about to default.

Thanks, Bert. Yes, I thought that meme was very appropriate!

The pro-opening-economy faction should understand one thing with clarity: opening the economy means opening pathways of transmission for the virus.

In which case we better be ready for a death toll in three, four figures. Maybe more.

I cannot fathom how people have not taken onboard lessons from Iran, Spain, Italy and the United States. Do they think we are somehow immune to the virus? I have bad news for them.

Stay safe, mate!
