We were planning a quiet trip out this weekend with the kids. Will be 3 hours from home but won’t see anyone. I wonder if it’s still allowed.

Nope, only solo outdoor trips is my understanding.

people can leave their home for fresh air and for exercise, but it must be solitary and people should only spend time with people they are in self-isolation with.

Anyone have more clarity on pods? I believe a household is a pod and you can go out with your pod members but cannot cross contaminate. HOWEVER, a solo person may join a pod. DOn;t quote me on that, I read something about it and now can't find it. Help required. Also I really want to go out and hunt.. anyone braved this yet?

The message is very loud and clear that hunting is not permitted. But apparently that hasn’t got through to you. Hopefully it has now.

Only those fortunate enough to own and reside on a substantial chunk of rural real estate will be getting any hunting done in the next 4 weeks.

The messages are loud and contradictory, which is why so many people don't know what they are and aren't allowed to do. Because apparently even the people making the rules don't know.

They couldn't have made it much bloody clearer.

So when the PM was telling everyone via national media that driving to your local parks and reserves for recreation was fine as long as you didn't mingle with other people, and the ministry of health was telling people hunting was ok as long as your don't go outside your area or take risks, but the police commissioner was saying anyone driving for anything except essential supplies would be stopped and maybe arrested, that was clear and not contradictory? Pull the other one, its got bells on.

If you’ve got any evidence to suggest that it’s a sensible idea and a permitted activity to drive for 2 hours so that I can go for a hunt in the Kaimanawas, I’m all ears

I guess if you do you are then stuck with that pod for the duration, anything else is just a disease liability.

If your isolating with your children you’ll be ok
