Northpoint Trust


Last time I was in Kaikohe for work I spotted this lady walking her dog, at one point which was being a bit naughty but instead of being annoyed she bent down and gave him a huge hug and pat, he looked very pleased with himself and was probably thinking "mission accomplished". 

So our region in New Zealand is back in level 3 again due to a positive case in Whangarei. Seems to be a woman who travelled up from Auckland with a friend using false documentation pretending to be an essential worker (meaning someone who is like a caregiver or someone who has to keep working through lockdown). Apparently they visited several towns up here on their road trip, they can't find one woman but the one they could find has been unco-operative - just what we need...not. So many selfish people around it seems with their own agendas. I will find out next week whether I am able to keep working or whether I have to wait until we are back in level 2 again.

Half our country are these kinds of idiots. I don't get it at all. And as someone who has done even more than asked of us (re lockdown), it makes me SO mad. Like what's the point of us doingthe right thing for others when people are havign secret mass gatherings anyway?

...too many people have a problem following the rules. Perhaps they want the pandemic to never end!

Welcome to the kind world the rest of western society has become. There is a big enough percentage who think that everything is about themselves and that 'community' principles are only for other people to maintain so that they (the selfish ones) can enjoy their supported lifestyles without having to make any contribution or adjustment for other people.

It is hard to comprehend the selfish attitude of others.

In my hometown things are the worst during the Corona. It´s spreading wildly among those no mask, no vax kinda people. To take care of them costs over 100 000 000€. I think they should pay themselfs costs of care. Some people you just can´t reach..

Auckland Metropolis Museum

In amongt the modern new highrise buildings in Auckland City is this smaller vintage building that is currently for sale (I'd buy it if I had the money).   My research found that:  "It was designed by English-born architect Charles Towle and erected in the early 1930s as the Church of Christ, Scientist, the building's Graeco-Roman facade has towering columns that frame its impressive entranceway, with three ornate timber doors decorated with leadlight inserts providing access to the expansive foyer. Arched ceilings dominate the former congregational high stud space beyond the foyer and numerous picturesque windows provide a light, airy feel and an ambience many office buildings lack. The building housed congregational and Sunday school services for 70 years until it was sold and converted into office space in 2003. A significant refurbishment was also carried out with care taken to ensure that the building's distinctive character remained intact. Special architectural ...

Grace Brothers

  We have 2 new chickens, both black ladies. If any of you are familiar with British comedy tv shows you will recognize the names we have given them. This one is named Miss Brahms. And this one is named Mrs Slocombe. At the moment we have them in a temporary shelter next to the Special Patrol Group that we've had for the last 9 months just so they can get to know each other before we intigrate the black ones in with the brown ones. These ones give us a white coloured egg whereas the brown shavers give us brown coloured eggs. Linking up with  Tuesday Treasures ,  Happy Tuesdays  and   Wordless Wednesday .

Vondel

  I nthe heart of Devonport in Auckland is this little block of businesses. In my younger days I worked in this suburb as a legal typist for lawyers and to see it now as it is, it's made many changes over the years. This building is surrounded by older style buildings in the main street with businesses such as shoe shops, clothing shops, professionals, cafes, bars, restaurants etc. It's a very upmarket suburb with quite expensive houses along the waterfront. Vondel in the above photo is a restaurant but upon looking up their website, there wasn't alot of information about who they are. Linking up with  Weekend Reflections   and the  Weekend Roundup .
