I’m confused about how my partner can’t go to her grandfather’s funeral, but the Byron and New Brighton Farmers Markets are still chock-a-block with definitely more than ten people every week.
Can someone please enlighten me?
• Ed: Farmers Markets, like supermarkets, are defined to be an ‘essential service’ under social distancing restrictions.
