It's that time of year - we all get a little nostalgic for Christmas' past. My grandad wasn't exactly the Grinch Who Stole Christmas, but he sure wanted it over and done with. Would love to hear your reminisces.

NZ has hit more than 90% of people over 12 being vaccinated twice - 95% in Wellington, 90% in Hutt Valley. But it is not good enough.

Omicron is aggressively spreading in many countries and children aged 5-11 are being vaccinated in many countries. For NZ, Omicron will hit us hard but hopefully not as hard as in some other countries. The 400,000 children aged 5-11 here will not start a measure of Pfizer
vaccine until January 17 and there will be a lot of resistance.
People aged over 12 in NZ will need a third Pfizer vaccine -AND A FOURTH - probably within a year of having received their first vaccine.
Israel, to whom the Pfizer vaccine became available months before it arrived in NZ, have had over 4 million of its people with a third jab and to date NZ is at around 140,000. But here is the deal - Israel says in the short term, a fourth jab is now needed as well in a bid to outpace the variants of Covid especially the skyrocketing Omicron.
And who knows what else is awakened as a branch out of Covid but the chances of more variants are higher than a cessation.

Got to get this off my mind. It's a plea to whoever takes on opening a cafe in the Blue Mountains Campus, Wallaceville 12 months from now.
If indeed a public cafe is installed as expected, it will occupy part of the ground floor of the four storey Buddle House.
So here is the name for it:

Kittens are supposed to sleep for 18 to 20 hours a day....I think Sam needs a new clock as he never sleeps anywhere close to this and seems to spends all day running round at top speed!"

Tatiana was a really timid girl who has really come out of her shell since finding a new home courtesy of the SPCA.

"You might be as shocked and as surprised as I am to know how well Tatiana is doing already. She's out of her box most of the time and is now running to me when I call her for lots of headbutts and head rubs. She's very chatty and is becoming comfortable walking around, exploring the house, and sitting on the windowsills and watching the world already. I chose the right cat, she's quite a character and is actually quite a brave, young lady."

A confirmed Covid-19 case in the Hutt Valley has led to the council reversing its controversial decision not to use vaccine passes for most council facilities, including libraries.
“Given this [case] and the high transmission rate of the Delta strain, we have made the decision to change the settings at our public facilities, moving to more restrictive settings,” the council said in a statement.
Mayor Wayne Guppy is urging everybody to wear masks and follow the guidelines on wearing masks.

First paragraph includes: work has begun on a new earthquake resistant commercial hub (etc etc).
Love to advise the unnamed writer that work in earnest started nearly three months ago on the Blue Mountains Campus and lots of people can vouch for this as they file past almost every day.
If this is the news of the day, then there is little use for the Leader as a newspaper.
In fact most of the information in this main item of the Dec 15 edition has previously been documented in better format in the Leader which at the time was considerably behind other news media including the DomPost, Stuff and the Willis Bond website.

With a confirmed COVID case in the community, the Upper Hutt City Council is "monitoring" the situation. If there a confirmed transmission, it will change the rules around vaccine passes.
Upper Hutt is one of the few councils in New Zealand not requiring the use of passes.
