I am working, the manager of SuperGrans Dunedin, with about 30 older volunteers. The first few days were spent contacting our volunteers and checking on their wellbeing, still believing that this was really all a bad dream. By day seven I was feeling totally lost and questioning; the garden was attacked with an almost slash and burn approach, which was a reasonably therapeutic session. There have been a couple of road trips to the supermarket, and I can remember feeling incredibly guilty when I saw a police car — what it is to be a rule keeper! That was a really unusual feeling, and I could not imagine how other cultures have managed to live under strict regimes.
