With Auckland back in Level 3, most of us are back working from the kitchen table, juggling work, school and childcare - simultaneously for some.
Last year, Stuff reported on the great array of hobbies New Zealanders picked up during the lockdown, such as home workouts and learning a few new cooking hacks. PC gaming also proved popular with Google search trends for March 2020 showing a 400 per cent search increase for the term.

Don’t worry, someone else will clean up after you, like they always do.
The socially responsible thing to do is to pick your dog’s* defecatory deposits and dispose of them, but, nah, it’s all good, some other dumb bugger will do that, why should you bother?
This is why we can’t have nice things.
Sort yourself out.
* note that I’m being charitable and assuming thus crap came from a canine - I wouldn’t be surprised if it was from a human, frankly.

Hi Neighbours, It is easy to grumble about things that could be better in Auckland. But Wellington, with recurring basic infrastructure breakages is a reminder of what Auckland got right. Should Wellington have learned ? Read the column below:

Aucklanders rescue 100 free-range egg hens from slaugher

Homes have been found for the brown shaver hens which were due to be culled on a free-range farm in the region.
Animal refuge New Beginnings Rescue and Rehoming had until Friday to find homes in Auckland for the brown shavers, which at 18 months old were moulting and having a breather from egg laying.
Chickens live eight years on average but hens only productively lay eggs in the first two years of their lives.
Dani Prance, who runs the refuge in Taranaki and Auckland’s Rodney District, said the hens were adopted by families in homes ranging from townhouses to big farms.
Prance said she was thrilled the rescue was over.
“Those girls now all get to enjoy a forever home where they can eat loads of bugs, have dirt baths and a lot of grass.”
She said three quarters of the birds were re-homed on Saturday and the rest on Sunday.
“Once the last girls were gone it was time to clean up the equipment we transport in and then finally get some proper sleep.”
