Day 13 – 7th April 2020 I know it has been a few days since my last post, I may back create them if I find anything I need to update. My main physical activity since the weekend is doing the weeding. At this stage it seems like it is very slow work getting the […]
COVID-19 Lockdown day 8
Day 8 – 2nd April 2020 Apologies if you were expecting to see posts over the last 2 days and didn’t see any. I found for the last 2 days there was not much to report. I guess this is expectable taking into account the restrictions. My main routine of eat, work, eat, sleep, repeat […]
COVID-19 Lockdown day 5
Day 5 – 30th March 2020 Small update today as it was back to work. Most of the day was taken up by meetings. I am also trying to get some time away from the computer screen. I got back into the garden after work to do some more weeding. It still feels like it […]

Central North Island Competition 2020
Band performance at the CNIs I travelled down to Rotorua on Friday night with some other band members to be well rested and ready for the competition on Saturday.
