How prepared are you for Omicron? it’s a good idea to prepare your home for the possibility that someone you live with may contract the new Covid-19 variant, Omicron.
If you do test positive, you will have to isolate for at least 14 days in your home, or other suitable accommodation.
Household members of anyone who is infected will need to remain in isolation for at least 10 days after the positive case has been released from isolation.
Omicron can be in your system for a while before symptoms appear, and it’s unclear how infectious you might be during that time, so having a plan in place before you need it can help make your home as safe and comfortable as possible for everyone living in it.

12 foot Aluminium boat on Trailer with 18HP Tohatsu motor. Trailer is registered but not warranted.
Motor starts readily and water comes out the telltale. I had the motor checked a few years ago when I was considering selling and as part of the check they were unable to remove the lower unit to check the water pump in the time alloted. I am not a DIY type so did not try myself. Possibly suited for someone confident enough to try themselves.
Selling because I am having difficulties launching and retrieving the boat by myself. The price, is the lowest I am willing to go to. If it is not met, the boat can stay in my garage until my grandson is old enough to deal with it.
Happy to answer questions but it may take me some time to find out how the messaging works in Neighbourly.

Price: $2,600

Simon Woolf visited the South Island over Christmas and he took this beautiful picture of a kotuku.

"Back in the 1970's I got to know National Forest Service Photographer John Johns. John was a phenomenal photographer, who was both technically and creatively brilliant. John was a true gentleman. He shared his knowledge freely too.
One of his many amazing photos was a Kotuku in flight, however his photo was very different to other Kotuku photos I had seen. It was the white bird against a white sky, and in Black and White. It was a beautiful piece of art and showed The Kotuku, our White Herons features so precisely.
John Johns along with Geoff Moon would be our greatest ever wildlife bird photographers. They largely worked with film, creating images in a darkroom, and shooting with manual lenses, They respected their environment immensely.
This Kotuku photo, taken yesterday, is a tribute to John, and what he taught me all those years ago. I was very fortunate to have John and Geoff, who both passed away some years ago now, as friends and mentors".
