Some of the South Island’s biggest New Year's Eve parties have become the latest victims of Covid-19.

The annual Queenstown and Wānaka fireworks and music performances were cancelled due to the complexities of planning events under the new traffic light system, Queenstown Lakes District Council arts and events facilitator Jan Maxwell said.

She hoped residents and visitors to the district would still support local businesses, restaurants and bars as they ring in 2022.

An Excellent Builder - Recommending

Pat from Dunedin Central

I had a full Inspection done by Davidson Building & Inspections Ltd (0220831553) for a large house in Mornington prior to buying in July.

Andrew Davidson prepared a very fulsome 90 page report from subfloor to roof tiles. I carried on with the purchase and approached him to basically rebuild the subfloor supports as the existing piles and joists were lying on the ground wet-rotted. Only one support was holding up the front aspect, two walls.

I've been very impressed with his quiet, steadfast work ethic and the job is nearing completion. I've photographed each step as it will soon be invisible under concrete and the wall of the house. Instead of ripping up the kitchen units and floor Andrew went in from the outside and then under. He quoted a costing range, not being specifically certain - of course - what would be found. I've had an invoice for work to date and it is tracking at the lower end of that range. He has not tried to gouge a higher cost and in fact made suggestions in terms of more cost-effective labour for heavy lifting work that would save me per hour costs.

For both the Report and the building work I am delighted with what he has done. I would, and have, recommended him highly.

He also built a retaining wall at the bottom of a steep bank. I'm delighted with that also, at a non-horrifying cost. The photo is just prior to completion as the paving wasn't then back in place. Now very tidy.

Hundreds of thousands of Kiwis who do not yet have both doses of the Covid-19 vaccine face a tightening of their freedoms on December 3, when the Government moves the entire country into the new “traffic-light” system.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced the date on Monday, saying Covid-19 was not going to be eradicated from New Zealand.

“The hard truth is that Delta is here and not going away,” Ardern said.

While Aucklanders will finally see an end to New Zealand’s longest lockdown, those in other parts of the country could face far more restrictions if they have not been fully-vaccinated.
