"Putting it in context, we have moved about 3.5 million parcels in about two weeks. Last week alone, we moved over two million. We'd normally move about a million. It has been an incredibly big amount of items coming in, and we do apologise for the public that have had delays in that as well," he said. "When I was looking through items yesterday, I certainly didn't see anything coming in from April, but it's not impossible that there could, in fact, be some much older items. I have gone through, as much as I can, through the network myself to try and see where they are sitting." He called the demand "unprecedented" and promised the public NZ Post was doing "everything that we can" to address the delays. "It is a combination of a couple of things. It could be a lot of demand for online buying in those areas, but I also know those are our two constrained operating sites," he said. "Just to give perspective, we would normally run 90-100 courier vans out of the North Shore. On Monday this week, we are going to try and put 250 vans up there just to clear the backlog." Walsh said the organisation would look back and consider what's happened as part of its plan for the future. He said the amount of parcels NZ Post was dealing with is what the volume is expected to be in three to four years time, considering the growth in online shopping. NZ Post said last week that it had set up temporary processing sites to help with the onslaught of packages. "We have set up temporary processing sites, and are operating 11 sites 24/7 for the first time. We've brought on hundreds of extra vans and people, and are working around the clock to deliver what you care about.
"This is a one-off situation, and we are really sorry for the delays."

I wondered what you thought about private security cameras. Are they good for the neighbourhood? Or a sign troubled communities?

The Classic Club Sandwich remains one of these 'comfort dishes' that is ever popular but it needs to hold together so that the components don't slip alway and fall on your special jacket or silk dress.
As part of our Canapes and Drinks Party Cuisine module, we make a classic club with the test being - can you cut it in a triangle shape, on its side, and place on a platter, without the sandwich collapsing...

Hi neighbours,
Low clouds, moisture and the Sky Tower's lights created an eerie glow that mystified residents on Monday night.
