Covid shots - things to know (having had both)

Andrew from Orakei

I've had both shots now, so here's a few tips

1. The injection is painless- both times, the pressure of the nurse's fingers on my arm to setup the site was harder than the needle going in
2. After effects- I felt fine in the days after the first shot. 2nd shot, day after I was a bit sleepy and needed an extra coffee, but I'd done a marathon the previous weekend..
3. Take something to read , drink and eat - you have to wait for 20 minutes after the injection

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
