If you are anything like me, stuck in Taupo with a very good Family of Friends, in Auckland with Covid, so bad that they have had the Ambulance, and it that is not bad enough, my friend in the main caregiver of a dying Husband.

How can I help, from Taupo to Auckland. I felt helpless.
So I googled Soups delivered Akl. And OMGosh I found this most amazing site, A Bit Dressy.
Had a bit of trouble getting my order of the most wonderful variety of soups on offer, placed, so I called this lovely, friendly, very helpful wee girl, called Lara, I believe. Seemed I had the wrong postcode for my friend.
I explained how ill my friends were and advised I was trying to place an order. She advised her delivery day was normally Thursdays, But given the severity of my issue, she would do a special cool Saturday, and hope to deliver Sunday. BTW, this was Friday just gone. She then told me she was so sorry she missed my previous call as she was on the ph to the hospital, and her dad had just fallen down a cliff, but she would do her very best to get these wonderful soups delivered on Sun / Mon at the latest.
Well 1 hour ago, 11am Sun, my soups arrived. My friends are thrilled.
Lara, you have helped a very sick family, more than you may ever no. Your professionalism is above and beyond. You will undoubtedly have a very successful business. I will shout to the rafters for you.
Well done you. You have uplifted my very sick friend and made my day as well.
Thank you a million. We need to see you on the TV, you are a star.
Kindest Regards
Liz
I will make many more orders, I am sure of it.

“Our staff and contractors are impacted by Covid-19 restrictions in the same way that our communities are, and as cases rise this will start having an impact on the services and facilities we provide for our communities.
“We are doing our best to be agile and are already seeing some of these effects at our facilities, but please bear with us as it may be at short notice that our services changes or facilities close or amend their operations due to staff numbers,” Mr Green said.
Facilities (including libraries, the Events Centre, Great Lake Centre, Owen Delany Park, museum and pools) may close or amend their operations at short notice because of a Covid-19 positive situation or because staff are self-isolating. Programmes may also be reduced.
Rubbish and recycling kerbside collection may be affected as drivers and sorters may be required to self-isolate. The priority is to ensure rubbish collection continues as normal so while we will still collect recycling, on some occasions, this may be required to go to landfill. If you would prefer to do so, you can continue to stockpile it until we resume services.
Bus services may also need to amend their schedule if drivers need to self-isolate.
“We all really appreciate your understanding as we work through the continuing rise in cases. We will be focused on providing our critical services to our communities while keeping our staff and community safe,” Mr Green said.
Changes may be at short notice so updates will be provided via facebook, antenno, our e-Newsletter and website as well as through local media.
