We'd be keen to hear from those of you who had to cancel an overseas trip due to Covid-19 and holidayed in New Zealand instead. How did you find your NZ trip? Was it better or worse than you expected? Did you enjoy it as much as you think you would have enjoyed your overseas holiday? And did it change your views about holidaying domestically?

They were purchased in Vietnam by my parents who have lived and worked there for the past 10+ years. Now that they are back living in NZ they have too many beautiful pieces of artwork to fit on their walls.
We would love to find a home for these one of a kind pieces. They are in good condition, with one having slight damage to 2 corners on the top and bottom left corners of the first picture (occurred during packing and moving). They are lacquered with inlaid eggshell.
Price: $200 o.n.o.
Dimensions:
300mm x 300mm

I live in Dickson Road Papamoa Beach, and even before the Covid-19 lock-down I have noticed that the Friday afternoon delivery of the Tauranga weekly news paper Sun-Live is no longer delivered to my letter box. I wonder how widespread this is occurring, and why it is occurring.
There is an ethical issue attached to this problem: local advertisers who are charged considerable amounts to place advertisements in this paper will not have potential customers able to see their adverts. So the advertisers miss out on business, locals miss out on hearing what services and goods are available, but the paper still keeps its advertising revenue flowing in.
If the reason is that there are no delivery girls, boy, or retirees available to actual make the deliveries, then maybe Sun-Live could up the amount they offer to pay these potential deliverers.

"We have a lovely young couple across the road from us at number 13, Glenaven Drive, called Kirsty and Jeremy. We have recently moved to Motueka and they have been very helpful and friendly right from the start. During Lockdown they did shopping for us and let us have soil from their excavations for our garden improvements. Later on, they have given us lemons, gave spare concrete when they had some delivered for themselves and watered our plants when we were able to go away and visit our new grandchild. They are gems and have made us really happy that we've chosen Motueka as our home."
