A four-level alert level system was introduced on 21 March to manage the outbreak within New Zealand. The Alert Level was initially set at Level 2, but was subsequently raised to Level 3 on the afternoon of 23 March. Beginning at 11:59 pm on 25 March, the Alert Level was moved to Level 4, putting the country into a nationwide lockdown. The Alert Level was moved back down to Level 3 at 11:59 pm on 27 April, partially lifting some lockdown restrictions, and down to Level 2 at 11:59 pm on 13 May, lifting the rest of the lockdown restrictions while maintaining physical distancing and gathering size limits. The country moved down to Level 1 at 11:59 pm on 8 June, removing all remaining restrictions except border controls.
A week prior to the Lock down, our office had decided that everyone would work from home.
So, my drawing desk/studio became my office. Actually quite comfortable, and a far sight better than some 'home offices' that colleagues had to deal with. e.g. dining table, basement, wobbly desk, kids running around...
First week or so of Lock down I rearranged furniture to create a 'library' nook
Queues at the supermarket became a new thing to contend with.
After Lock down, we took a much needed road trip to Wellington
