I have never seen my parents
Really quite so excited
Pouring over shopping lists
And looking so delighted
Mum putting on her dress

Really quite so excited
Pouring over shopping lists
And looking so delighted
Mum putting on her dress
and kicking up her heels
Dad putting on his game face
To get the food to cook the meals
A little like a game of roulette
I wish them well on their caper
As most stores are out of stock
Of necessities like loo paper
Looking like a surgeon
They face off with their masks
Prepared to ward off the virus
They wait in line, 2 metres apart
And then like a bull to a flag
The store allows them in
And quickly they disappear
Down aisle’s and out again
Never did I think the mundane
Could bring such delight
And when the Alert is over
We deserve a SHOUTOUT for doing what was right
Be Safe
Be Kind

To help us remember those who served and understand what ‘to serve’ meant, Ryman recorded their ANZAC resident’s stories. Some are humorous, others are tragic and eye-opening, but they all offer insight into the courage, bravery, and determination required to serve.
What better way to remember than to read the memories of those who were there?

Description
Aerial view of Seagrove Aerodrome and surrounding countryside and coast, Manukau Harbour, Auckland. Photograph taken in 1946 by Whites Aviation.
Seagrove Aerodrome was part of an RNZAF flying training station (RNZAF Station Seagrove) established during the Second world War. The station and runways were built in 1942 and operated as a training station from that year to 1944. Seagrove was also a base for the American Marine Corps from May to June 1943. After the war the site reverted to farmland.
Back in the 1950's the tarseal runways were used for motorcycle racing. You can still pick up spent .50 calibre projectiles from the shore there. they had targets set up on the mudflats there for the aircraft to use for target practice. The area now part of a stud farm. There is a stone memorial at the end of Seagrove Rd.

Unfortunately, in some instances, our desire to defend against COVID-19 is creating even more health problems.
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has just released a report revealing a rise in calls to poison helplines. This rise coincides with increased media coverage of COVID-19, as the first case was reported in the US on 19 January 2020.
Even before the current rises, concerns for children under the age of five represented the largest portion of calls. This continues to be true, as chemical exposure cases across all ages increased this year, with up to half of all calls concerning young children. The case study provided by the CDC report shows just how frightening such a situation can be. More on this subject can be found on this link:

The majority of the trespasses were for threatening behaviour (51), abusive behaviour (41), theft (33), graffiti tagging (14) and intoxication (nine).
Five people were trespassed from several libraries for multiple offences or where serious types of offending posed significant risk to staff at other sites. Three people were banned from all libraries for offences listed in the article below.
Despite this, an Auckland Council spokeswoman said its libraries were safe and welcoming for Aucklanders wanting to connect, read and learn, and trespass notices were issued in "rare and isolated cases, with no evident patterns". Library staff were trained in conflict awareness.

This weekend as we reflect in our homes rather than at local Dawn Services we acknowledge the service of all those who served for New Zealand in Gallipoli, the Somme, Malaya or are out on patrol today with the United Nations.
We shall remember them this Anzac Day.
Remember to keep safe and all the best for the weeks ahead, my contact details are below if you need any assistance.
