Shout out to all the supermarket workers!
This morning when shopping at Pak n save Petone, we were served by a lady from the HR team. She said the staff even had their kids helping out. Thanks for pulling out all the stops to keep the shelves stocked and the masses moving.

About 70 of Metlink’s 500 bus drivers are aged 70 or over and in accordance with the Ministry of Health guidelines, they are advised to remain at home. Less drivers means there will need to be cancellations to some services across the bus network.
We are currently looking at where cancellations will need to take place and are encouraging Metlink customers to keep up to date with service changes by checking Metlink’s website, App and Real Time Information screens.

It's the food staple of 2 pet bunnies, 1 rescue bunny residing with HUHA & 5 rescued guinea pigs. I do go foraging but am unable to find it. Does anyone have a fairly unlimited supply I can forage/buy every week? Supermarket produce is limited and mostly not suitable for them, and the Hutt City Council is rapidly leveling the good forage spots that have not been weed-sprayed.
