There are at least 6 posters in this thread that come across VERY much like they will not be happy until those who displease them are made to sew yellow stars on their wet jacket.

It is very sad to see that after 2-3 weeks so many still have no understanding if what the govt needs to happen.

 

Yip, but i guess experience only come with age. 

... And youth is wasted on the young people....  Which is great for us older guys.

In the meantime post a pic of this view. It sounds magnificent, and I can just image what it was like today!

I will get my son to send his drone up in the moaning and do a pan

being in your marina or a very sheltered bay over the next couple of days would be a good idea - for the Hauraki Gulf

Sunday: Northerly 20 knots rising to 25 knots gusting 35 knots early afternoon, to 30 knots gusting 40 knots late afternoon, and to 35 knots gusting 45 knots in the evening. Sea becoming very rough in the evening. Cloudy periods and isolated showers, then poor visibility in rain at night.

Monday: Northerly 35 knots gusting 45 knots easing to northwest 25 knots gusting 35 knots early morning and changing westerly 30 knots gusting 40 knots late morning. Very rough sea easing. Poor visibility in early morning rain with possible thunderstorms, then easing in showers.

Waiti Bay?

Happy Easter btw!

We just had our Easter Day lunch - similar you Christmas Day lunch but with chicken instead of a tougher drier version aka turkey. I’d struggle to recreate that on Aleana.

Roast whole scotch fillet with a mustard and herb crust just gone in the oven here . Son is making cauliflower purée while drinking several types of red and a craft beer . Sounds a bit wanky but he’s a chef and I was one many moons ago . 
 

but to balance it out we are in the bush , offgrid and 5 sharing a longdrop so not all airs and graces ! . Happy Easter .
