Taking just a moment ...

Fiona from Henderson

Hello one and all.

In these trying and testing ('scuse the pun) times, we are all on edge, all getting down to our last nerve with patience for ... well, we all have our thresholds for each and every opinion out there.

I personally have been going through something horrible, like so many others out there.
My responses here may not have been well thought out and to those who I annoyed, please accept my sincere apologies.

This post however, is just me reaching out to thank every single person involved on the front line of this dreadful virus.
That includes the testers, the security people, the Police, the whole medical front line workers.
To those working furiously behind the scenes to get the test results out in a fast but efficient manner, thank you as well.
To the wonderful people who are manning the phones within the MOH call centres, calling people, following up with advice or a shoulder to cry on or even having a huge laugh with, bless your hearts.

To you all, your work is outstanding - keep up the excellent work.

Let's NOT lose sight of those people who are working furiously to try and keep us all healthy at the possible expense of their own health.

Please, be sensible and keep to the rules that are set down.
They are set down to keep you and everyone you love safe and well.
Buy doing this, we will in turn make all of those hard working frontline and essential workers daily routines and lives, so much easier.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
