This will be an absolute Godsend in these times, and especially as so many people are very nervous about going to the supermarket, testing station or to be vaccinated.
So, maybe this tool will help ease your mind as to how long you have to wait for two of them - the testing station and supermarkets… View moreThis will be an absolute Godsend in these times, and especially as so many people are very nervous about going to the supermarket, testing station or to be vaccinated.

I typed in Henderson, Auckland in the address field - hence the general map area of Henderson
Keep in mind, they are approximate times as they are updated by people in the lines.
But still ... anything helpful has to be a good thing - right?

As it possibly has a constellation of new mutations, it could make this new strain resistant to vaccines😲
Its already appeared in approximate 39 countries thus far, including Europe, UK and USA, since first appearing in Columbia in January 2021.
Now, at the back of my mind, I knew that this Corona virus was going to continue to mutate as time went by, however, as I've just had my first dose of the vaccine, I think that the timing of this news is ... argh!!!
Add this one to the list of things to watch - oh great🙄

Around 50 to 60 homes have been evacuated and an emergency shelter has been set up at 6 Henderson Valley Road.
West Auckland has been hit the worst with flooding in Helensville, Kumeu, Henderson Valley and Rānui.
Firefighters received around 170 weather related calls overnight.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said evacuation advice overrides Covid-19 restrictions.
Auckland’s two vaccination centres at the Trusts Arena and the Airport have been damaged and will not open until 11am.
SH16 through Kumeu is closed due to flooding between Matua Road and Riverhead Road, and Waka Kotahi has reports of fallen trees and slips across the wider network.
MetService said heavy rain is expected to continue throughout Tuesday.
Neighbourly spokesperson Sarah Moore encourages people to check in on their neighbours - especially if they’re elderly or alone.
“But ensure you're abiding by Level 4 rules consider emailing, texting or using Neighbourly to send a message. Even if they're doing well, the connection will mean a lot,” she said.
“When there's a break in the weather carefully head outside to check whether anything is blocking your drains or has come loose in a storm. Don't rush - things could be slippery. If you do notice damage make sure you take photos in case you need to lodge an insurance claim.”

They are not talking about the books you cannot return during pesky lockdown, but into the future.
This decision just promotes irresponsibilty, and non accountability.
We all know the long suffering ratepayers will be the ones who end up indirectly paying for all these missing books, some of which are very expensive.
Who gives these people the power to make such shocking decisions.
NZ is fast becoming a "nothing of quality is valued anymore" country.
In modern idiom "Woke". SAD!

For the hours you all put in, for the patience you have for all quirks and queries from us all, for all of the different languages you have come up against, for EVERYTHING you do and have done to make our time getting vaccinated such a stress free and reasonably pleasant experience.
Of course thanks should always go to everyone on the front line, but today all of the vaccination team ABSOLUTELY ROCKED!!!
From the people in the 'appointment' line when they should've been in the 'walk in' line, when people turned up not wearing a mask right to the elderly couple who wanted to carry on in their car to a carpark of their choice and almost taking you out - even though everyone was shouting and waving at them to try and stop them and let's not forget the black and yellow bar they were determined to drive through; you all took in your stride with a smile on your face (albeit hidden by your masks).
Your professionalism and genuine compassion as well as friendliness was most welcomed and noticed.
💐💗Thank you all so very much💗💐
