Looks like I’m not going into the office next week.

Any of you guys get wonkybox delivered?

This week's included gold beetroot and apache potatoes which I've never seen in my life.

Looking to share (well.. mostly receive I guess) tips on what to cook up, how to use what's in the box best etc

I literally can not wait for this. Cycling there is so awful.

Suck a shame they don't do a town centre upgrade. The Grey Lynn shops could use some love.

I can't even recall what Street it was on but it was a great big food court in town with all types of Asian cuisine, anyone know what I'm talking about?

I've used the southern train into work in Newmarket a few times, but have found most days it's cheaper taking my electric Leaf, so do that.

Traffic on the southern motorway yesterday was the definition of horrific (2 hrs to Takanini) and I realized I could bike home in that time. The plan is to train in the morning and bike home in the afternoon (down Gt Sth Rd almost the whole way according to Google Maps).

Has anyone had personal experience taking a bike on an Auckland train, especially during peak hours? Ive looked up the AT website and it says ok, subject to space...

Hi Tāmaki Makaurau / Auckland, we have a new mod joining the community.

@tripp@lemmy.nz has been appointed as a mod of !auckland, and will be starting to look at fleshing out the details of the community.

I know you'll make them feel welcome :)

The rest of the motu seems pretty active so it’d be great to connect with others across Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland.
