I know many may wish to observe Anzac Day at 6am at your letterboxes. I wanted to let you know that I will also be playing the Last Post at 10am from our deck and another neighbour, Commander Roger Havell RNZNVR will be reciting the Ode to Remembrance. We're both very aware that Level 4 restrictions remain in place. But if you wanted to be at your letterbox or nearby (maintaining the two metre distancing and remembering we must avoid anything that constitutes a gathering) it would be a pleasure to share this with you. Some of you may have heard me playing earlier this week. I am in the NZSO and was also recording a version for them. Kia Kaha.

To help get it sorted faster we’ve quadrupled our Customer Care team, and expanded our order fulfilment network so we can get thousands more orders delivered each day. Plus our remote Tech Solutions service will be free until May 11 to lend customers a hand with technology advice or setting up.
Thanks for your patience, everyone. We’re getting there.

Crews are working to repair this and get water back on as soon as possible.

Residents are reminded to keep two metres distance while collecting water, only take what is required for their household, and to return home once water has been collected so our crews can safely get on with the repairs.
