2 metre distancing is the FOOL answer - the FULL answer is that people travelling through/into/ other peoples air bubbles can also catch the virus . ½ an hour of Supermarkets filtered air circulation is not as safe as ½ hour in an aeroplane.
# With a suggested 72 hours life span, travel distance of 2 or 3 metres there needs to be a safer way to shop.
# Accept that people are travelling into and through other peoples air bubbles .
# The legivity of COVID 19 needs to be as serious a consideration as distancing.
Currently to traverse the aisles at the local supermarket be prepared for the 100 metre trolley push.
Rod Derrett 1962 - KIWI EXPRESS should give our song writers inspiration re the perspiration and frustration to cover the 100 metre trolley push, with the self imposed handicap for backtracking because their list was not in order.
Then eventually the arrival at the cough up area - well the pay up area - that takes its toll.
If (Rudyard Kipling's poem could be consideration at keeping our heads and not laying blame) there is a better way.
To reduce the time, distance and passing through multiple air zone bubbles, Instead of aisles upon aisles, an isle - a fast island set up, with the basics, with stock replaced when it is getting low, not 24 hours later when the night staff have done their job, causing customers having to go back again to get what wasn't there, and maybe gone again - perhaps they got that cunning plan from Baldrick.
If you only want the basics say a top up of 20 items or so, imagine if they were all within a few metres reach. Think of the time saved. Think of the reduced risk.
Well maybe they may will have a variation if there is another outbreak.
MAYBE they may see that they have more happier customers with less outlay and more prophets telling them it is a good thing to do. Though they will be more interested in the profits.

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉
The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.
This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
🎉 Riddle me this, legends! 🎉
He/She who makes it, sells it.
He/She who buys it, doesn't use it.
The user doesn't know they are using it.
What is it?
(Shezz from Ngāruawāhia kindly provided this head-scratcher ... thanks, Shezz!)

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
