Stories from inside isolation
Hi neighbours! The next four weeks will no doubt be challenging for us as we try to combat the spread of Covid-19. Throughout the isolation period, I would love to hear your stories. Have you come up with a unique way to spend the time? Have you become a hoarder of jigsaw puzzles? How has life changed for you or someone you know? Let's have a (digital) chat! I'd love to hear from you.

Keep safe and be kind.
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
41.1% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
57.2% No, I enjoy it
-
1.8% Other - I'll share below
