11Mar20 0708 #5 Corona virus: septic tanks update
Update and last post on this septic subject since my #4 post two days ago. This morning I talked again to Auckland Council's help phone-line 09 301-0101. They hadn't done much thinking since my first call 9Mar20. So septic tank owners .. we are pretty much on our own for now. But the phone line team leader did say that any household in isolation should call their septic tank contractors, notify them about the isolation so they can take appropriate precautions, and ask the contractors to clean-out the tanks.
As I look out down the valley here along Redoubt Road and watch the rain settle in I can't help but remember Auckland University Associate Professor Wiles' recommendation: form a support group with your neighbours so you can help each other. Here's the link: bit.ly...

Hi neighbours
Our locked vehicle was stolen from our driveway in the early hours of this morning - 27/12/25. It is a blue Daihatsu boon rego # LPP146. I am a carer to my 92yrs mum. Her walker was in the back with 4 boxes of washed clothes for hospice op shop. If you see this vehicle can you pls call the police and message me on neighbourly.
Thank you
