 It was meant to be up north but decided it will be Wellington as too many clashes at the mo for north land trip.. firstly with my Herald boss being on hols, then next weekend it’s Mother’s Day and then the weekend after that my friend has got something on… so instead I’ll be trekking to Wellington to see my brother on the weekend of the 15th. It DOES however depend on whether I can get time off from work… both the Heralds and Hell Pizza.  Depends on the roster on Hells but will need time off from Herlads. 

I actually did get tested yday as I’m planning two trips next month.  I will outline where I stand regarding the COVID procedures that I outlined previously. TESTING:  I’ve been tested twice and plan to get routinely tested before every trip outside of Auckland... ie if I go down to Wellington etc.  I also get tested if I have cold or flu like symptoms. Both time’s I’ve been tested it’s been in the “off season” ie at times of low alert (lever 1) so yday I just drove up and got the probe up the nostril and within seconds I was on my way.  Of course the previous time I got tested it was cos I was sick so precautionary and it was at my GO as opposed to at the resting stations.   SCANNING:  I do this religiously as I have parents in their 70s that I regularity visit some I wanna know if I’ve been around ppl who’ve been tested.  A lot of ppl are concerned about their privacy yet are fine with paper trails due to cashless transactions.  I’m well aware o...

Had to postpone my Wellington trip due to the car but it’s all on for next month. Got several trips planned... one to Wellington and one up north.  Decided I’m gonna get a routine covid test before every trip I do just as a safe guard against me spreading any disease.  My attitude towards the covid stuff is what I would term in the middle.  I’m pretty strict on masking and tracing but obviously more against things like the vaccine... but even that I’m not 100% against.   So basically you got testing, tracking, isolating, preventing (masks etc)  and jabbing. All but the last one I’m fully into.   Anyway I still need to get ready for these trips and they will only go ahead if my hells pizza roster permits. Anyway a warm welcome to those of your who have come over here from my Facebook page. I’ve had my invitation on there for several hours now so will be checking the responses and may prob delete the page until I go on my trips. 

 I got the travelling bug.  This time I’m going by car... taking a few days down there and staying with my brother and his clan.  Allways good times being down there.  This time round I have house sitters... my business partner and his girlfriend have been living at mine this year and going good.  Anyway it’ll be interesting to see how my trip down goes... I’ll head down on Sunday which will be interesting as it’s ANZAC day... hopefully no major disruptions due to parades etc. speaking of which I need to bake my “fuck war” cookies so I can eat them on the way down haha.  I’m looking to get a white poppy as opposed to the red ones as the white ones symbolise peace.  Anyway I’ll be giving you updates during my trip... may even post a few pics.
