Thank you. yes we are all well. New Zealand has been out of lock down for almost a week, except for our borders which are closed to all non citizens or residents. Strict quarantine for all returning NZers.

We are still struggling with it here. I’m keeping at home– a third of our Covid deaths have been diabetics and that scares me.

Scary ! I do not know the ratio of diabetics affected here. But I was told several days after lock down started that people over seventy were supposed to get other people to do their shopping for them, or order on line and have it delivered to them. By then I had found that not all brands or types of food were always available, and I could not be sure other people would choose substitutes suitable for a diabetic diet. Social distancing was well monitored and policed at our local supermarket so I continued to do my own shopping there once or twice a week. I remained at home the rest of the time and am still fit and well.

At the moment, yes ! But we are constantly being warned that a returning NZer passing through our airports could start it up again.

I suppose some will start anew but many will pick up where they left off – I like manufactuaries.

Ah, yes, but maybe we all should ask whether we really need all those things…………

There’s the rub – the gap between what we should do and what we do.
