Interesting that they'd shut down gardening and landscaping. Those seem like
occupations that were already inherently social distancing?
A few of my neighbors have been doing some fairly intensive gardening in the
last month or so. They're outside in their yards, but not encroaching on anyone
else's space. What would they do if they couldn't buy planting materials.
Noticed on this morning's walk to exercise the dog that the house down on the
corner has 6 new little colorful cactuses in their garden.
I've been thinking this might finally be the year I put in a small (4'x8')
raised bed for vegetables myself.

There’s a lot of similar stupidity going on in my state re the virus. While
big box hardware stores are open to the public, some items are off limits for
purchase like planting material and plants. Also power boating has just been
put off limits and landscaping firms are not allowed to operate ie, grass
cutting outfits are prevented from cutting grass. The craziness continues.

turning back as many as they can and issuing substantial fines.
That's happened here as well. Some were being turned back some 300km into
their journey. The police have also warned that if you make it through on
the way out, you may be turned back to your holiday house when you try to
return.
The German government has chartered flights to repatriate their citizens
from NZ so there has been a 747 taking off from my city every morning for
the past few days. It's pretty rare to see those here. They've done
flyovers a couple of times but I was busy indoors for the first one and
today I only just caught a faraway glimpse as they didn't fly over my part
of the city. They certainly make some noise at takeoff!
Cheers, Dave
