Well I went out this am well laden down with raincoat and umbrella but didnÔÇÖt need either, a shower has just gone through but minimal wind still.┬á
Called in to little 4 square yesterday as I was going past but no busier than usual but they have common┬ásalt at the moment the other local supermarkets IÔÇÖve looked in only have expensive fancy pink salt which I donÔÇÖt want to buy just for making pickles so at least if my tomatoes blow down IÔÇÖll be well prepared to make more relish┬á
 
Instead of a flood plain letÔÇÖs build on a cliff top or right close to a beach┬á┬á┬á
 
Mind you with our ÔÇ£youngÔÇØ terrain of steep┬áhills, volcanoes, fault lines etc etc┬áthere are┬áextra risks wherever you build.
Must admit that I live on land that came up in the 1932 earthquake so hope it doesnÔÇÖt want to go back down again although IÔÇÖve been told that NZ is tipping towards the west so the east coast will be going up rather than down.
