Whittaker's chocolate only here. Call me biased I don't care, it tastes better and is a local company.

So I did the patriotic thing and bought a slab of Whittaker's Bundaberg Ginger chocolate, in support of both countries impeccable culinary tastes.
The wrapper does not state 'Made in NZ' but 'Crafted in NZ'.
I immediately had a mental picture of of Hobbits, with wooden hammers and chisels, delicately shaping slabs from a huge block of chocolate.

Because a few people can't follow the rules and stuff it up for the rest of us.

3 people turned up in Auckland this week from Melbourne via Sydney and failed to declare where they came from. Fortunately our guys saw through em and they are now in quarantine here.

Unfortunately there are always those who seem to think that their lives are more important than those whom they could infect. We had it last year in Tas where a group in a highly infectious town decided a big party was ok. Most people did the right thing but there is always those who only think about themselves.
The whole town was closed yet some flaunted the law and decided a trip to Bunnings in the next major town was ok. Needless to say they got caught.

I guess I really should be grateful to of had them for so long and have some wonderful family memories traveling around my birth place of Scotland then to England , South Africa and finally Australia.

In my view they should have got 14 days in quarantine, then a stint at her majesty’s pleasure.

As a comparison, down under, it beggars belief that two or three Logan women lied about their travels and actually went to Melbourne for a party while it was in lockdown, picked up COVID19 and then went back to Brisbane where (I think) there was an outbreak (attributed to them?) causing a Brisbane lockdown

But we are such a forgiving society when it comes fraud associated with knowingly making a false (health) declaration or causing grievous bodily harm to others by spreading of COVID19. I give them a couple of years to think about their actions
