Like many small companies we have been pretty hard hit with Covid especially in the last few weeks with covid doing the round thru our family. Liking to be different Patrick tested posted on Megs day 7 , Shan positive on Patrick's day 6 so we have had 3 weeks of shut down.

Despite being triple vaccinated it hit hard. We are committed to stay up to date with all future boosters and flu injections and we feel strongly about protecting our valued customers.

We are extremely greatful to 2 amazing friends/other local electrical businesses who have done Elusions urgent work over this time. You guys rock.

Walking group

Lesley from Shirley

Hi wondering if there is a local walking group in Shirley looking for new members. I would be keen. Not up to great long up hill tramps, but can manage a couple of hours on a reasonable track. Just had a holiday in Wanaka and walked 2-3 hrs each day on tracks around the lake.
