White self contained small minivan today at Rothesay bay

I'm not judging the person, but the rules are clear in that people need to stay in the confines of their neighbourhood and home and that the mandate was the same for campervans. We do have a camper van also, so not dissing on that, but we live in Rothesay bay, in our home and our bubble and certainly would not be jumping in our camper to go anywhere. The concern is that people living in vans are not staying put in the one place that they were mandated to Wednesday last week, which is a big risk to everyone. I didn't have my phone so didn't get a rego, but I urge people to be careful and to keep an eye out, and also to not be sitting on park benches etc- this virus lives on surfaces. The government should be providing specific places for all people living in vans, campers, but like us all there should be no or limited mobility between anyone in any neighbourhood.

A very important Covid-19 safety message from NZ police

Caroline Williams Reporter from Auckland Stuff

Hi neighbours. Remember police Sergeant Guy Baldwin, who rose to fame in 2009 for his expression "always blow on the pie"?
Well he's back, this time with a message for Kiwis: Stay home and help break the chain of coronavirus.

Hi neighbours. Remember police Sergeant Guy Baldwin, who rose to fame in 2009 for his expression "always blow on the pie"?
Well he's back, this time with a message for Kiwis: Stay home and help break the chain of coronavirus.
"This thing (coronavirus) is an invisible dragon. Please, stay home. Let's break the chain and save lives. If we follow the rules, we'll end this lockdown sooner. Let's slay this dragon, and get back to doing the things we love, like eating pies."

Resolutions and Endeavour in the Covid crisis

David Bell from Trinity-at-Waiake Methodist Church

Sometimes art, literature, films tells us far more about how to live life than churches do. I found an old Housman poem, used in the last episode of Inspector Morse, as he lay in hospital, to be a powerful reminder of truths from unlikely sources. Yet churches too can grow, adapt and change for … View moreSometimes art, literature, films tells us far more about how to live life than churches do. I found an old Housman poem, used in the last episode of Inspector Morse, as he lay in hospital, to be a powerful reminder of truths from unlikely sources. Yet churches too can grow, adapt and change for the better. The MDF woodcut was printed as a monotype sequence, The Cross in Central Otago. You can learn more about how we do theology from the link.
