Okay hivemind: best bet for a COVID test in Wellington?

So it's good that the only place in the central city where you can collect a test even if you're a symptomatic close contact.

Long queue on Taranaki St but it moves fairly quick. I'm the only person over 25 here.

Poor kids.

"Welcome to your first year at Vic Uni. Here's your complementary case of COVID. Please be aware of the insurgent camp on our Pipitea campus. Rent is $450pw."

Okay so 35 mins from the back of the queue. Not terrible.

Success

Okay. Now that I've cleared out of the action, here's roughly what I saw going on as the #Convoy2022NZ occupation was disassembled.

This was all around 4:45pm through to 7:45pm this evening.

Gotta untangle your flag so you can signal distress properly.

This old geezer here was chewing that cops ear off like an old soak boring a bartender out of their mind.

This was the state of the Lambton bus exchange during a lull, before things really kicked off.

Police have moved in down Molesworth, then fanned through Aitken and (maybe?) Hill. Now in control of those areas.

At least five big two truck queued up.

One of which has been put to work.

I'll do a map update on the Wellington #ConvoyNZ2022 occupation later this evening. Short answer is space wise nothing has changed.

Assorted observations from today's walk. For vibes.

One change on the Hill and Molesworth front: complete vehicle barriers now in place. Makes access difficult.

Are they for keeping people out, or keeping people in?

Unironically uses terrible nicknames for NZ towns: Anything-a-vegas, Dunners, the Tron.
