I might not have followed all the cut and thrust of which you speak, but I am glad of the opportunity to go off topic, but pertinent of course.

How are you dealing with this no nose cone (by Cindy edict) business. I say Bring Back the Nose Cones. I like to say (to myself you understand) " Stupid idiot" whenever I see someone walking along the street or in the park in a nose cone.

Now I don't know who the stupid idiots are.

And even more perplexing, I can't work out if the ones still wearing nose cones are more or less stupid than the obedience trained ones who have removed theirs.

Everybody that I spoke to it today about was very happy not to "have to" wear them. The supermarket was about 1 facemask in a 100 customers and zero facemasks on staff. My wife has been wearing one the whole time even though she hates the thing and practically nobody at her workplace was wearing them today either.

Off topic - Hawkins didn't turn up to the Ratepayers meeting tonight but the nurse who spoke to the council was there. Generally it was Lee's crowd though. Jules waffled, wouldn't commit to anything that would lose a vote. Mandy's positions were unpopular and the others were pretty quiet.

Good point in your last sentence. Indeed. Why were they so necessary yesterday and yet today not necessary at all.

I might have to start wearing one on the top of my head.

A bunch of lycra cyclists just bunched up down here at St Clair. One of them was wearing an N95 cycling in (they passed me) but it was not to be seen when all 30 of them were bunched up next to the beach.

Jabcinda has removed the mask and clotshot mandates to give the impression that all is well now.

This is timed to take the wind out of the sails of independents standing for local body elections.

Did you read Guy's latest, where he quotes Cindy saying that oldies won't be needing further boosters now. Like they have been wrecked enough; job done.

Yes I gave the link to Hamish McNeilly who does time here masquerading as a journalist.
