One Gruff Harding, Two Gruff Harding

While Aotearoa New Zealand is in Level Four lockdown, one man's efforts are multiplying. Gruff Harding lives in Dunedin. First, he had the boys over. Routine is important. So is music. Bathrobes. Meditation. Games. Gardening. Scones. Like all good blokes, in the shed. Hanging around the street. Planning session. Cafe scenes. THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE. Formal Friday. Jousting on the lawn. Chores.

There are a great many of him! That seems both useful and burdensome at the same time.

I being left to contemplate, where are 5 and 6 most of the time? 6 only seems to appear in Bathrobes, and 5 is only in a few. Are the main 4 just sort of a clique, so there are two more of him wandering around being largely ignored by them? How would it feel to be cast out by a group of oneself?

I hope my therapist is available!

Like, obviously 5 is a bit of an asshole as he's just standing on the porch while the 4 are working...

As it is announced we will go down to Alert Level 3 on Tuesday, Gruffs hold a last supper.

Day 20 of quarantine: Me and the boys still having fun
"This is NOT social distancing unless you all live together, which I doubt."

Great minds, etc.
