Oooh! I am compelled to do a short thread, which you are compelled to read please. You know how we’re all reminded to #BeKind and not everyone is digging on that mantra? Well I just got #BeKind smooshed in my face. Behold... 1/

For the last many Fridays under #lockdownnz my friends in Wellington have made pretty regular efforts to have Friday Zoom meetings with me because I said I was lonely and sad.

And thus we did. Organising it via Whatsapp, a group message we’ve had going on for about three years or so. But tonight they were going out for dinner to celebrate end of lockdown and support local people and local businesses.

Obviously I’m in Chc so I couldn’t go, so I threatened to Zoom their dinner and shout obscenities but they didn’t let me. But also, they have helped me out financially while I’ve been going down the drain. Anyway, they chose Bellamys by Logan Brown.

So I thought I’d ring the restaurant and buy them all a drink. The man who picked up the phone listened patiently to my story and we tried to find a round of three drinks in my budget, but he just said, “let’s get them three dessert cocktails, we will pay, what’s your message?”.

And Lo, I wept. For a man called Jasper did bring them three drinks. He did not say tell my friends those drinks were on the house. He passed them my message and my friends think I’m real nice.

And the message was: “thanks for not inviting me. Asssholes”.
And that, is #BeKind. Retailers have suffered but make a special night happier because they are starting all over again.
So, go to Bellamys by Logan Brown and say yay to Jasper. Apparently he’s hot?

Ooooh! Naughty. My friends have found this thread and are disgusted I haven’t given a glorious shout out to Kat, “the fun waitress from Manchester”.
Onya Kat!
So I guess what you can do, is at least like their Facebook page or something!
