NZ's back in Lockdown

[GSXKING]

Are all your covid cases in Auckland ?

My cousin in Ho Chi Minh says they now have night time curfew & 3500 people dying each day. There are 9 million in the city same size as Brisbane.

Nothing on the news about Vietnam

No Chris, we're all still locked up tight!  10 fecken days now.  There's none in the South Island, yet we're all locked up too, just to keep us safe, lovely.  It wouldn't be so bad if there was virus actually in the South Island, but there's not. 
They talk about 'bubbles' well why not have a South bubble & a North bubble?  They (Norf Islanders) keep the virus up there & we get on with things, back to work & get the economy going again. Our finance minister says we, (the govt) is in good shape and can sustain lockdown for a lengthy period, that as may be, but what about the individuals and businesses who earned the money that got you the big cash reserve?  they might not be able to stay in lock down for a protracted period!!  There will be more than a few businesses going broke because of this.   Dumb arse politicians only think of themselves and preach to us every day at 1pm or a bit later some days.


There is light at the end of the tunnel though, (hopefully) today at 1pm we'll find out if they're going to keep the South still in lockdown.  Lets get back to work . . .

You're right about the 1pm preaching Col. I'm sick of the sight of the woman. I cannot understand why the South Island isn't back in business. Oh thats right the government is keeping you safe.
The masks we are all wearing have a 10 micron gap in the weave of the fabric, the covid monster is 0.3 of a micron.
Don't worry about the money Col the are printing and borrowing more as we speak. It's hard to believe the incompetence of the politicians. Have you had your saline jab yet ? It's reported they had a little faux pax with the jabs in Christchurch.
Anyway Col please be seated at the prescribed time to see if the fairy princess will let you out to play. Until then cough into your elbow and be kind.

LOL, I thought the saline jab saga was up norf somewhere.  My first jab tomorrow at 1.20pm.  I got out to play this morning, was at the supermarket by 7.30, no queues & straight in. great, as opposed to going after 9.30am with queues very long. 1 in & 1 out.
